I did an experiment for you.  On Vista Home Premium I set up an
account without Administrator privilege.  I used the Opera browser and
it would happily run signed JWS apps.  I discovered though that the
ability to set the clock was inhibited.

Since there are no EXE files involved, I  guess Windows does not count
what JWS does as installing.
