I also want to something similiar to Jeff. I am an Administrator, but I want to run my program using a limited account so I can make sure everything works. I currently use Run As, but this program seems like it would make it easier.

Colin, can you run in the same way IE as a limited user, if you are logged as administrator? This can be usefull if you want to browse potentially unsafe sites from limited user and after browsing just remove user account with all viruses that may live there. I think you cannot. But Advanced Run allows you to do so. Moreover, you can also manage privileges using Advanced Run.

A question 2 Colin. So what do you do if you want to run something with command line arguments? Something like “mmc lusrmgr.msc” to manage user account when you are loggin on as limited user.

sometimes i try work it in another way .
click the start menu, then right-click the Internet Explorer in the all program while pressing the SHIFT.
then type your admin account after your clicking the run-as.
and then u can do what u want by typing in the address box. e.g. d:\
and you can also run program in this windows explorer by using the admin account you have just typed.
