Either that or I'd instead suggest you install the app as an administrator. While installing WLM Plus! rt.click on the installer and choose "Run as Administrator". This will throw a UAC dialog box if a user tries to install a script, it should limit installs of scripts to only those with a valid admin user/passwd. Just blindly assigning full control to all users is sort of bypassing the security controls in place by Vista. Just my 2 cents :)

Well that is true, but don't you find the security controls in place in Vista just stupid and annoying anyway?  Like the way I can't seem to modify the shortcut to iTunes on my desktop, despite being the admin?  And the way it takes about 6 clicks to empty the recycle bin?
