Forgot to address one part of the question in my response: Q: new software to users' computers but without having access to other parts of the users machines, is this possible ? A: Yes, this is easy, use EFS & set security perms so that the installer can't access the files. Remember to generate backups of the keys AND OR assign a backup agent (All in the microsoft KB).

Man, I sure am glad I got my MCSE, CSSIP, CUSSE (yeah I dropped it) CERTIFICATION SOUP.
