Hi Bill,
The security risk is there, it isn't huge but it is giving non-admin users a
privilege that they would normally only have on the console (session 0).
But it's a difficult choice between making an application run for non-admins
and opening a small but not inconsequential hole in your security. If it's
any consolation, we've been assigning this privilege to students in several
schools (AutoCAD etc) and despite considerable entrpeneurialism by the
students it hasn't proven to be an embarassment.
regards,
Rick
