Yea, I saw that part, but I'm not interested in users being able to
update the program themselves.  That's MY job :)

It really kinda makes me grit my teeth in anger that they haven't fixed
this yet.  Especially when it seems like it would be so easy.  At the
very least, they could make the perm changes automatically.

If you scroll down a little farther on that page you'll find a post on 
how to get it to also update as non admin.

Part one last night [just getting it to run] worked even on the 2006 
version with the new SQL backend [Sybase SQLanywhere mind you]

But yes, even in 2006 it still requires admin /power user rights.
