With that said, has anyone here installed V6R1 Sysem i Access and had any
trouble with other apps running correctly afterward? We installed it
within a Windows 2003 Citrix/TSE environment and are now having trouble
getting two other apps (IE7 and Global Spreadsheet Server) to work
correctly unless the user running them is given an admin authority.

We're running System i Access V6R1 on Vista SP1, XP and WS08 TS (w/o
Citrix) without any troubles - all users without admin privileges, of
course.

There's lots of System i Access auto-start stuff that i disable,
because it can interfere with other applications, especially the
auto-update stuff that stopped working back when users no longer had
admin privileges (which was around 2000, i think).

For debugging permission issues, i highly recommend using Microsoft's
Process Monitor

It will take you a while to get used to reading and understand it's
output, but it can help you find out why a given application won't
work without administrative privileges. My experience thought me that
it's possible to run almost any application without admin privileges,
but it may take a whole lot of time to get it working.

Now, you say that IE7 doesn't without admin privileges - to me, this
indicates that permissions on Windows system directory must be broken
- this would be something that you could figure out pretty fast with
Process Monitor.
