USB Mass Storage Device - Drive Letter-Yes, Access-No

Running XP2002 SP2
USB Mass Storage Devices are allocated a drive letter OK
But, when try to access the device I get:
'This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions on your computer......'
Investigation shows this may be due to a GPO setting.
If due to a GPO where is it and how can it be changed?
If something else what could it be?

Thank you

Glynn,

Are you part of a domain (work machine), or are you on a standalone machine?

GPO policies can be set locally or by Domain--if your network administrator
has decided usb devices are an unacceptable you cannot override this
behavior
