Hiroyo,

Unfortunately I don't have access to a computer running 10.4 at home,
but there is that edit capabilities feature in 10.2:

System prefs >> Accounts >> [select account from the users tab] >>
Capabilities 

That gets you to a window with four checkboxes, one of which is "Burn
CDs or DVDs"

Is it the same in 10.4? Could that be it?

Hope this helps.

Bill
