Actually, no, it's not a Windows feature per se. Not every installation
requires Admin-level rights. There are enough programs "out there" that
can be installed without being root^WAdministrator. But let's not argue
about that, because then I would have to dig up some pages from the
Microsoft Developers Network (MSDN).  ;-)

Kind regards,
Amedee
