Question : Install apps on Win7-x64 Pro machine without admin privledges

I am upgrading the machines in our small office (4 computers) with Win7-x64 Professional boxes (SBS 2003 Network).  When configuring the applications on the machine I need to enter an admin id and password for each and every install.

That in itself does not present a problem if the applications would install for the local user.  I found that when i was installing Google Apps Sync that the program would install but only under the administrator and not for the local user (local Outlook Profile).  I would have to make the local user an administrator, install the app, and then remove the local user as the administrator to have it load properly.

I am running into the problem again and would like to see what is the best solution for handling this?  It seems very inefficient the method I am following.

Some software will want local admin rights to install and sadly there is no way to do this other than promoting the user, installing and demoting. I still have some old bits of software which needs users to have full admin access to work at all (which makes me cry)
