Logon script permission issue

This may be a simple question, but I'd like to know the answer.

I have a logon script that needs to be executed every time the user logs in. The script installs/updates our virus scan software (TrendMicro OfficeScan). If a person logs on to a computer that does not have the virus scanner installed, the script installs it for them... or at least, it should. It will only install if the user has administrative rights. Unfortunately, most of our users do not have the rights needed to install software, and as such, the virus scan will not install unless and administrator logs in. Is there any way to make the script run "above" any user permissions? I.e., allow it to install even if a user is not usually allowed to install software? Would there be a better way to deliver this software than a logon script?

Thanks,
TGHH
