Setting up an account in XPP that won't "hurt" the system?

Hi all,

I need to setup an account that can read and execute
all of the installed programs in XP Pro but can not
modify or "hurt" the system with installs. The
regular "user" account can not execute non-certified
MS programs and the poweruser account has the
ability to do installs which I don't want for this
account. Can I setup a custom group that has the
characteristics I seek and put this account in it?
Example of one problem: user account can not run
OpenOffice after installed by another account that
has higher privileges. This is on a standalone
machine.

any ideas?

Not really. Unfortunately, this is an issue with some apps that do not meet
Windows XP logo requirements.
