Rights

Hello,

I'm wondering how others deal with allowing users rights on work computers.

At our school, users aren't normally given Administrator or Power User
rights unless it's absolutely necessary.  Occasionally we
encounter employees and students that don't understand how easily a
system can be messed up and the security issues involved nor why we
feel it's necessary to operate like this.


I would like to know what others do, and what policies they have in
place to address these issues.

Thanks,
