Possible to install MSN Messenger/AIM without Administrative privelleges?

[Argo]

Is it possible to install either of the two without having Administrative privelleges to the computer? Seems like MSN would nistall just fine, however, it tries to install itself under all users' accounts which is what causes it to fail. Anybody have any experience in this area?

AIM 4.4 Alpha was leaked just as a zip and I've run it off of a flash drive before without trouble. You can also try toc.oscar.aol.com for quickbuddy.

Actually AIM is less of a problem since I can use AIM Express. I'd like to somehow get onto MSN. The computer has wnidows messenger isntalled, however, it's pre-configured to use exchange server. As the result I cannot communicate with anybody from the outside world.

Asking for help installing/running unauthorized software on someone else's computer, eh? :frown: Basket cat does not approve of this thread.
