Re: Automatic Updates as a Limited User
said by toadlife  :changing your network connection settings (try and change your IP address using runas  ) is one of them. I launch a command prompt as admin, then type "control panel". Voila, a control panel where everything will run as admin  Including Network Connections.
Yeah, XP Home users will have to create an admin user.

| Here's that error Home Edition will give, if anyone is interested.
If I do so happen to find a way around it without using Safe Mode, i'll be sure to post it but it isn't of much priority. |

Lemoore, CA | I have a feeling this might be fixable by tweaking a some local security policy option.
I don't have an XP Home CD avialable to me...just pro, so I can't investigate.  |
