If the users are an administrator of the machine then they will always be
able to install software.
I would recommend using Regmon and Filemon from SYSINTERNALS.COM to
determine what specific permissions a non-admin user needs to run the
particular applications you referenced.
Regmon and Filemon will show you where the application are reading/writing
from the registry/file system...once you know this information you can open
up the permissions on those reg keys/files to allow non-admin users access
to these locations.
