Hello. I am scanning subnets with WinXP clients. I would like to
use a scanning account that is not an administrator account on the

settings we have to tweak?

An administrator account is better. It will allow you to access "C
$" (or any administrator share) to get the file version instead of
doing a registry check. This is useful for Windows patches but for
some other softwares too (Opera, CA vet, Flash, RealPlayer, MSSQL, ...).
