Assigned to:	Michael G. Zinner	CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
I received the following when trying to add a new user while logged in with a user account that does not have privileges to create/modify users:

The following Exception occurred...
Access violation at address 004E36BA in module 'MySQLAdministrator.exe'.  Read of address 00000004.

How to repeat:
> Login with a user account that does not have user admin privileges.

> Select 'User Administration'...will receive MySQL error (good error) stating that you don't have rights, etc.

> Click the 'New User' button and receive access violation error.

Suggested fix:
Disable the 'New User' button if the logged in user does not have rights to create new users.
