Why are Slysoft Products the number 1 users choice ? ....
AnyDVD works in the background to automatically remove the copy
protection of a DVD movie as soon as it's inserted into the drive,
allowing you then to backup the movie using a DVD backup tool such
as CloneDVD / CloneDVD mobile / 1ClickDVDCopy . You can also remove
the RPC region code.

How to DEFRAG a drive if not an Administrator
faq779-5538
Posted: 17 Nov 04 (Edited 18 Nov 04)
Periodically you may want to force Windows XP to defragment the hard drive. One example of this is immediately after you update XP to a new Service Pack (the complete XP2 download is well over 200 MBs and it makes lots of changes) or your computer seems to run slow or take longer to boot.
But what do you do if the usual user does not log on with Administrator privileges? Normally to run DeFrag you could go to Windows Explorer, right click on the C: drive, open Properties, go to the Tools tab and select Defragmentation but you need administrator rights. (Error-Checking or ScanDisk may need only a scheduling and reboot.)
Here is a way to create a shortcut on the desktop that the Power User can run anytime as long as the first time it is run you enter the administrator password so that permission can be saved:
RunAs.exe /savecred /user:administrator "defrag c: -v"
If still slow, try running the core of the MS bootvis utility. The file placement optimization, which is done no more often than once every three days, is an example of a task that is carried out when the system is deemed to be idle. To start this 10-15 minute optimization routine:
RunAs.exe /savecred /user:administrator "Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks"
For similar and more comprehensive speed enhancements see FAQ779-4784.

Thanks for the info ....
... the problem is I do not know the password for the Admin.
I know there are utils that remove the Admin Password ... I dont want to hack the PC what so ever as I would loose my job if I was to get caught.

It is if they have lower techs like you have a usergroup permission maybe limited but more that the average user. I can't really see how defragging will mess up a computer personally.
