Yeah ... all version of MS Office before 2003 (XP?) don't run as a "user" without giving permission to write things where users should not not be able to. The lack of application support (MS & otherwise) under windows to run as a limited user is the biggest frustration I have to deal with administering windows desktops.
You weren't there when Office 95 came out and the supposed "Office 95 ready" Windows NT 3.51 "Daytona" release was supposed to run it without issues. ;->
How many of Microsoft's products passed Microsoft's own "Designed for Windows 95 and NT" certification? *0* They _failed_ every damn time.
So Microsoft changed the certification requirements.
