 * Hello, I added another admin to my WP install and we learned she cannot see the
   Upload/Browse bar beneath the post. It’s not there. She can access the Uploads
   tab, but that is all. It is critical she have that Upload/Browse capability.
 * What could be causing this?

 * I’ve just added a second admin to my wp but it didn’t happen what you describe.
   The Upload is there. Did you install some strange plugin? Did you try with a 
   clean/test wordpress on the same machine?
 * I know it’s not a big answer but it’s the best I can do at the moment with your
   description.

 * I tried creating a second admin and received an error code:Warning: Cannot modify
   header information – headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\
   andrewsrantz\wp-config.php:1) in C:\xampp\htdocs\andrewsrantz\wp-login.php on
   line 12
 * any ideas why this happened?

 * It seems to be an ob_flush problem. Is it related to Leovenous?

 * Okay, no I had the Inline Images plugin that I didn’t need anyway. I disabled
   it but it didn’t fix the problem, but it did, because I then created a test admin
   and it worked fine.
 * So I think now that the pligin is disabled I can re-create the real second admin
   account and be good.

 * Oh my…
 * This is a winner for strangeness.
 * I created her new admin account… logged in myself and verified I saw the Upload/
   Browse area.
 * She logs in… nothing. She even sent me a screenshot. Nothing. I sent her a screenshot
   of me in her login… its there.
 * We’re both using Firefox on a Windows PC. I can’t fathom why that is.

 * Okay, turns out she had McAffee security service on and somehow that was blocking
   her ability to see the Upload/Browse dialouge. Thats so strange cause everything
   else was working fine.
 * Oh well, thats why I use ZoneAlarm I guess.
 * Resolved.
