Then you have to strictly limit what they can do.
Not really.
I can't stand OS's which nanny me.
I'd rather be 'nannied' than have the freedom to crash the OS just by running a buggy bit of user-level software.
Spoken like someone who doesn't tweak his own interface. :)

No.
Nothing one can install without an admin password is capable of crashing any serious OS.
Heh. Ironic.
I guess OS X 10.2.6 is out then. Co-workers clean-installed the latest version of Safari on three relatively new iMacs today and after a restart it crashed all three of them. We'd never seen a panic-crash before. Tech support is here now trying to get the computers to boot up in OSX. Hopefully we'll have them running tomorrow.
And it's not even a third-party application. :)
