Re: How did someone with a limited account install Antivirus XP

If it installed globally or changed system policies like it usually does to prevent changing preferences, then it wasn't a limited account. Safe mode won't make a limited account an administrator. An account in both "Users" and "Administrators" group will make it an administrator.

Otherwise you could have just deleted the profile folder from another account and been done with it, or it had failed from installing altogether.
