Try this:
1. log on to the machine as local administrator
2. install all programs as the local administrator
After this everyone should have access to all programs, including domain and
local users unless you have some odd ball applications that won't behave the
"windows" way. You may have to customize shortcuts, program startup, etc..
but that's about it.
I have done this many times, it also works. Your problem is somewhere in
the account creation process.

as administrator (domain admin) and went ahead and installed office, and
other programs and made changes to the desktop. After that I joined a
domain and it created a new account for me adminisntrator/domian. Now when
I login using this new account nothing that I intalled is available! Do I
have to install the programs and make the settings changes everytime I
create a new user? What could I be doing wrong?
