    Running progs for limited users

    I recently wrote a program for a corporate customer. I use SetUp2Go as an installer.
    My problem is that the IT guy installed the program for the user, who signs in with a limited account.

    The program works fine in administrator mode but not in guest or limited mode. There is a warning to this effect in XP when you create accounts, that some programs won't run correctly unless logged in as an admin.

    Does anyonme know how I can get around this?

    My installer puts the registry settings in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, do I need to install to HKEY_LOCAL_USER or is there more to it than that?

    More likely HKEY_CURRENT_USER or change permissions on the registry key using regedt32 (can not be done in regedit), if the user permission level permits writing to the registry at all....
