Thanks guys - maybe I'm asking the wrong question...
It there any way to password protect the uninstallation of a third
party application?

I can implement the installer class in my own apps to do this but my
systems manager wants to be able to stop people uninstalling a third
party security app that he puts on certain laptops to block access to
USB drives. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks again.
