Re^2: Google Desktop as a development tool

I tried to install Google Desktop Search on Win2000 and it said To install or run Google Destop Search you need administrator access on this computer. Please try installing again once you have administrator access. Ok, so I ran the installer as Administrator and everything worked. But the problem is that now it will only run as administrator, which is extremely annoying and insecure. I've heard anectdotes of people running it as a regular user, but I haven't been able to do that yet.

update for clarity: answer to immediate parent, how to install for multi-users is outside the scope of Perl Monks -- eg, not perl related. However, you can find out how to install a program in W2k, as admin, for all users, in the series of dialogues used in the install process. If you wish to learn, try uninstalling and then watch options in the install dialogue carefully	[reply]
