Has anyone tried installing it using Run As function? Not sure if that would work.

Hold down shift key, right click on the exe file and select run as. Enter the admins password in the dialog box.

Actually, looking at my system, I see there are several rights required
for SpamBayes installation that are NOT granted to the basic "Users"
security group:
  -write access to C:\Program Files
  -write access to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (where the outlook addin is
registered)
  -write access to various keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software
  -write access the the "default user" subkey of HKEY_USERS
