Runas works but you still have to let other have the
adminstrative password.
In some cases the following has worked, especially for
non-Microsoft programs, but not all. It is worth a try.
First - Login as an adminstrator and remove the programs.
Second - Make all users administrators.
Third - Re-install the programs.
Forth - Change the accounts back to limited accounts.
No promises, I donīt have either of these programs.

Although we don't have
