Run an install package or registry settings as admin

[Tweak155]

Trying to change the auto configure proxy script for I.E for multiple users without the users knowing the admin login info.

So it is a simple registry change but I can't figure out how to make a package that will run as the admin without having to type the password in manually, which defeats the purpose.

I know about /runas but it doesn't do the trick.

ALL the admin passwords on all the pc's are the same so I can make one file that will execute as that user, but I don't know how and can't figure it out via VB or windows cmd.

Any ideas? A plus if it works in WINNT but not required. All other station are win2000 or higher and no vista.

Why can't use you use GPO on your server?

Well, you're trying to write malware, essentially. Not that it's your intent. Why not use the group policy and system management tools as Crusty suggested?

Wont work for intended purposes as not all stations are on the same group policy.

as long as you dont have to create new keys, you can modify existing key values in C++ without an administrator password.

Knowledge of MFC is required... but I have done simple tasks like this before.
