Here's the problem: I have XP Home edition installed at
home and I have the "computer administrator" security
level. The other users have "limited accounts". The
problem is that a few of the applications cannot be run
by the limited users unless they run the program with
different credentials, namely mine. How can I set up a
program or a shortcut so that it can always be run as if
it is being run by a administrator without giving my
password to all the other users?

I appreciate any help,
Ed
