Murad,

I would recommend looking at the following tool, called the Elevated 
Privileges Application Launcher (epal), from Microsoft:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/downloads/e
pal.mspx

It should allow you to run your applications as a member of the 
Administrators without explicitly granting the end user the same
privileges.

Hi,
We have two apps (even calling them legacy seems to attribute some
undeserved elegance to them) which must run at admin level to function
properly. I am trying to find out whether the fact that users are
allowed 
to
be local admins, or even given the runas power to run the app can
still be
locked out of control panel etc through GPOs.

I mean, if I let people runas then they know the admin password so can
rescind any GP settings, can't they? How can I shut that possibility
out?

Yes I have asked for the possibility of then apps being recoded to 
function
under power users but the development team are of the starving waif 
variety
due to under resourcing...this consideration is not high on the list.

Kind Regards
Murad Talukdar
