Framemaker installed under Administrator

Ok I just got off the phone with this guy. He doesn't like my  
suggestions, Art's suggestion or anyone else's.
He wants to control what gets installed and downloaded on a machine so  
he wants to do all installs and downloads as administrator rights. He  
doesn't want to give this person administrator rights to run the  
software in fear this person will download other things.
He installed photoshop and InDesign under these rules and they will  
open up for the user rights. It's just Frame that won't. He wants me  
to get with Adobe and have them fix this or get answers to his problem.

He just sent me a log dissertation on why windows administrators must  
do what they are doing -- make everything tighter than bark on a tree.

Any other help appreciated.
