It's not Installshield's fault - the W2K system has it's own script-driven installer (which, co-incidentally, already existed in an under-used form on NT). You just provide the script and the files, then push the start button. Installshield these days is basically a glorified wizard and packager to allow the production of scripts and CABs.

If there's a problem with the install, then it's in the installation script itself. Up to now, I have never encountered a need for Admin privilidge in any empeg install on NT, so either something has changed in the script, or NT does not behave the same way as W2K, or there is something specific on Nick's machine.
