I possibly shouldn't really give this out, but it works like this :
1) code looks at logged in users account
2) code logs into domain or local pc as a specified / hard coded user logon
3) code compares the accounts, then sets the original users rights to that of the specified admin one
4) code carries out admin task such as writing to the registry
5) code resets the users rights back to what they were & logs off the second / temp one.
This is a huge security risk for your users and network if you do this. On win9x machines you won't need to use this & you should find your users have rights for what you're trying, so this app is mainly for winNT & 2000.
To use it, the local user needs to have the "act as part of the operating system" privelage set up for this to work (havce a word with your network guys to set this).
