Re: Setup files that can get around UAC

True, thanks for the reply.
I just had a look at Inno setup and the help file indicates that it is possible to create a setup that installs even if the user does not have admin rights, so it seems there is no internal windows security to stop regular users from installing applications it is entirely dependent on the setup creator, which is probably how Firefox got around the need to have admin rights to install. It is just bad form and really annoying for system admins when a setup allows users to do their own installs.
All men have an inherent right to life, the right to self determination including freedom from forced or compulsory labour, a right to hold opinions and the freedom of expression, and the right to a fair trial and freedom from torture. Be aware that these rights are universal and inalienable (cannot be given, taken or otherwise transferred or removed) although you do risk losing the aforementioned rights should you fail to uphold them e.g Charles Taylor; United Nations sources: http://www.un.org/en/documents/udhr/, http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Professional...ages/CCPR.aspx. Also Charles I was beheaded on the 30th of January of 1649 for trying to replace parliamentary democracy with an absolute monarchy, the same should happen to Dr Phil and Stephen Fry; source: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...ute-Monarchism.
