I have install XP and set up few accounts (1 have Admin rights, other
non-admin)..I install many programs, which I noticed they will show up in
non-admin accounts (ex: Nero, Winzip...) but programs such as Adsgone,
SpyBot, Ad-wares does not appear (they appear in Admin account)...How can I
make them appear in non-admin accounts? Thanks!
 
You will have to copy a shortcut to all users desktop or start menu. Copy
the shortcut from your start menu here:

C:\Documents and Settings\your user name here\Start Menu\Programs

to the all users start menu here:

C:\Documents and Settings\all users\Start Menu\Programs

Also keep in mind that some programs will not run unless the account has
admin rights, so even after you copy a shortcut it may not run. You could
try the run as function and run it as admin.
