Just tried 2.0's Ping.Send with a non-admin user and it seems to work. It actually also worked with user in the Guests group, which is really surprising.
It uses the IcmpSendEcho and IcmpSendEcho2 functions on XP+, in the IP Helper DLL. I guess those wrap the raw sockets sends/receives in an impersonation layer or something...
