"Picture the large microsoft windows running company where employees are users, not even "power users", and don't have write permission to the installation directory. The quoted paragraph seems to specifically exclude the clients automatically upgrading. Now, I think the way other programs running under windows get around the necessary priviledge elevation, is by running a "service" as a user with rights to the installation directory, e.g. system, or administrator, which the client running as user can connect to. Without this, there doesn't seem to be a way of managing firefox without visiting each an every computer it is installed on." | "Picture the large microsoft windows running company where employees are users, not even "power users", and don't have write permission to the installation directory.
