Or, at least, they say it does. Quite often, it just needs permission to selected directories and/or registry branches. > My question is… is there some way I can tell WHY this app requires this > level of permission? LUA BugLight. http://blogs.msdn.com/aaron_margosis/archive/2008/11/06/lua-buglight-2-0-second-preview.aspx It will wrap the program in a set of shims and then monitor it to see what it needs, and report the results to you. You can do the same thing with Process Monitor, but sifting through the results can be tedious. LUA BugLight does most of the hard work for you for most things. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
