Since you stated that you are using php 5.2.xx

Not sure if any is applicable to a Windows Server Install as you indicated but

Have you looked at this thread and implemented the php5.2 suggestions?

2 fixes in there made everything work! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Glad to see that was able to get you running.

I'd consider those fixes as temporary/stopgap until you can get php upgraded to support the current zencart versions.

Asked them if they are going to upgrade as it was out of date. Waiting on an answer.

This message is on your store front and is part of why you can't access the admin at this time:

Hmmm, is this something new? I'm sure I've been able to access the admin section of a site even when the install folder does exist.

Now I'm not so sure (is my memory really deteriorating that quickly, I seem to be forgetting a lot of 'details' lately)

Maybe it was the short holiday from ZC that has caused the loss of details. :) I'm still trying to get to a condition to test my statement above about the presence of a full zc_install directory having an impact on accessing the admin... I thought the last time I forgot to rename/remove the directory I was prompted with an info screen advising me to address it before moving forward. Hmm, I guess I could look through the admin code path in absence of running a true test...

Gave up in the review of admin/index.php, and admin/includes/application_top.php and did a search of the files. In ZC 1.5.4 the issue is addressed in admin/includes/init_includes/init_admin_auth.php lines 22-26 at least when not in a series of a test environment/having overridden some constants, etc... Basically redirected to a forbidden page... Yes, all sorts of ways to work around it, but basic install would prevent access to the admin if the zc_install directory existed regardless of content within.
