Install App as Admin on User login

Im looking for ways to run an MSI succesfully on a users login when he/she has no rights to install the MSI to the box.

on NT4 i was able to do that by masking the mapped drive as my admin account.

any new tricks in XP? I dont want to keep logging off the user and logging on as admin.

If you right click on an exe file you can do a "Run as..".

But with MSI miles that's not an option. You could pry figure out a way to do a "Run as.." on msiexec.exe and then install the msi.
