Upgrades require Administrator privledges

[Guest]

What a pain!!!!

Why do you have to be an administrator to install MS
upgrade - with the amount of desktops we have in the
office, it is a real pain to upgrade MS anti-spyware
upgrades

This is a beta-test, and it is not recommended to install it on a production
machine, or in a corporate environment.

As was posted elsewhere, one shouldn't run this on a
production machine. It is neither designed nor intended
at this time for an Enterprise deployment,
or for deployment in an Enterprise.

situation can be found here:

Additionally to previous answers, the current Beta 1 release does not run as
a service, but as a process in user mode. This also means that MSAS has the
same rights/priviledges as the logged on user.
You should wait for Beta 2, which will be more sophisticated and will run as
a service (I suppose).
