Im tryen to install zmud at work (its ok i can, work graveyards, and have all the free time in the world.)

Anyway, The new zmud install wants to change something in the settings inwich i need to be a admin for. Rather then have to track down the admin and wait for them to install it for me. (god only knows how long that could take.) Is there a way to get zmud to run from an .exe with out haven to install or some other fix. also I have registered my zmud, and paid for it. Can i use my code from my work station , or do i need to buy anouther one?

Thanks

The problem is not ZMud, it is the network OS. The admin has set it so that a user cannot switch settings, which pretty much means no installing of software. I have this problem at work too and we can't even install Flash and Adobe updates. The only solution is to see if the admin is okay with you installing it and he/she will have to give you permission to change/add settings.

Actually, you need admin priveleges in order to install zMUD and run it the first time in order for the eLicense copy protection to get installed properly. There isn't any way to run zMUD without installing it with admin privs unfortunately.

Your reg code can be installed on up to 3 different computers, so that's no problem.
