Re: Admin ****eld-logo on VO apps in Vista

If the application does not have a manifest Vista tries to analyze the
file to see if it needs admin rights to run. Your Inno installation is
probably recognized by a bit pattern. The manifest can tell vista =F3ne
of the following things;

* Require administrator priviledges to run. If these rights are not
given the application is not started at all. A ****eld is automatically
added to the application/shortcut icon.
* Run as Invoker. Normal user rights. You can't write anything in c:
\program files or c:\windows and a couple of more folders.
* Run with the best priviligies possible (Same as the user). Don't
remember the manifest for this (I'm at home now). I'll post another
message tomorrow...
