Nope. It's not an "application-compatability" issue.. I am much more
experinced than to fall for that as well. It's a political thing.. I
remember something in Windows 95 user policies that would allow you to
disble the ability to share folders per user. I hoped something like that
would have been carried over to Group Policies.. Thanks for everyones
comments.. =c)

I still don't see why you won't remove your users from the local
administrators' group and spare yourself the trouble. Please don't give me
that old "our applications require this" crap. I haven't run into a single
application that couldn't be persuaded to run with reduced privileges.
