I've just installed some software.  Installing that software required that
I elevate to admin and left that software in a typically global location
on my machine (either C:\... or C:\Program Files\...) where my normal user 
account does not have writes to access.  

What's the least surprising - that the global location is now suddenly
writable or that the global location remains writable only be 
administrators?
