we don't give of our users power users rights. they all are "restricted users". because of that decision, we have to test every application prior to installing it onto the end users computers. they are allot of applications that claim to need power users rights, but you would be surprised how easy it is to allow that application to run as a restricted user.

By default in Win2k/NT/XP local users (non Admins or Power Users) do not have the rights to install local Printers 2. I am in a Windows 2000/AD environment is there any way to allow users to do this without giving them at least Power User rights?
