If you had Altiris deployment console you could push out any change you
wanted to them via a Rapid install package. : ) God I love that program.

 
If it is a windows 2000 machine you can also use the Runas command to
run the file as a privileged user.  Just create privileged account and
put it's user name and password in the script.

Subject: [THIN] Automatically configure Outlook 2000 clients



Hello All,

We are in the process of switching our user base to a Citrix based
Outlook solution for our remote offices. We would like to use an
application such as ProfileMaker to automatically configure the end
users' profile when the first connect. Our problem is that our client
machines are VERY locked down and nothing can be installed when the end
user is logged in. This rules out ProfileMaker as it has a 180K client
piece which an administrator would have to install - for that I'd just
configure the profile.

Can anyone suggest an application which will ease the configuration
headache? Or perhaps you know of a workaround?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
