I just tried python 3.1 If installed under c:\program files, the access control list would be correct, only system & administrator accounts get the modify privilege. The default installation is to c:\python31, in which the access control list has the issue that unprivileged users can modify it. I guess a possible remedy to this is that after installation, the setup program can just remove "authenticated users" from the access control list, or at least remove the "modify" privilege from the corresponding entry.
