My bet is it didn't. It created it using an elevated service maybe. Or got hit 
it across the network from another machine......that is exactly how conflikr 
works. What virus is it?

Subject: VIRUS INSTALLED ON RESTRICTED USER PROFILE

Yesterday, one of my users got infected with a trojan, and since all our users 
are "restricted users", we were trying to figure out if perhaps the computer's 
local administrator permissions allowed this to happen. It turns out that a new 
profile was created named "XXXX" with administrative permissions, So, my 
question is how can a virus/trojan create a user while logged in as a 
restricted user?
