I want to run Spy Sweeper on all of the accounts on my
computer. My two young sons have limited accounts and it
won't run without "Administrative Permission." It says
to check Windows help for instruction, but I can't find
anything useful.

This was taken from the help section for Spy Sweeper: Spy Sweeper 3.0 will
work properly on all Administrator-level users of the system, and will
install on all profiles. However there is some limitations. In order to clean
all accounts, Spy Sweeper must be installed under a Administrator account.
The option to sweep across all users must be checked. This will allow Spy
Sweeper to sweep all registry files.

The only limitation is in the shield functions. Spy Sweeper does not have
the ability to shield all users. We are working on adding this functionality
to a future version of the software. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Hope that helps sort out the prob. We'll have to wait for the upgrade I
suppose!
