Thanks for the quick response, so this was my first guess either.
So the other question is: is there a way to author a single installation that 
can be isntalled in per user and all user context? The MSI MSDN help states 
this is only possible for Windows 7 with MSI 5.0...

cheers,
Tobias

Simple Answer: No.

Complex Answer: It depends on exactly what your installer does but the
things you can do are so limited they may as well not be possible
either. Hence the simple answer.

I ahve a question regarding Installation Privileges and the setting of
the ALLUSERS property:

Is it possible to install an MSI in the "allusers context" without
having admin or any special rights (so be a normal user)?

cheers,
Tobias
