If the program needs admin rights because it writes to it's install
directory (c:\program files\program name\), then a simple solution might be
to just install it to a location that you have full permissions to.
If it's because it runs a driver, you're out of luck and will have to run it
as admin, but as others have said, it doesn't affect the performance, just
security. ;-)
