    setting up standard user with admin-like properties

    Hi.

    I want to use Parental Controls on a Standard Account, but still have
    certain admin like functionality for the standard user, like
    installing/uninstalling software, running system utilities and the like. Is
    it possible to do this using the Local Security Policy tool, User Rights
    Assignment? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    I'm afraid this is not an answer but a similar (if not the same) question. I
    want to be able to impose time limits and certain internet restrictions on
    the standard user but at the same time allow him to install whichever
    programmes he chooses. Is this possible? If so, how?
