Okay, thanks Luke.

From the link: "Members of the Administrators group on the local server
computer have full control of all applications running on that server,
including Internet Information Services (IIS), Microsoft SQL Server,
Microsoft ASP.NET, and Windows SharePoint Services. These administrators can
perform any task on that server, including all administration tasks for
Windows SharePoint Services, such as controlling administrative functions,
configuring settings at the server or virtual server level, and creating or
changing sites and lists."

I'm assuming the creating or changing sites and lists is giving them the
Manage Lists rights that automatically approves their submissions. That is
a flaw in SharePoint in my opinion. I can't think of any reason why a local
machine admin should automatically bypass the approval process for a list.
The context of a particular list or library in a SharePoint site is
completely different than context of an administrator of the local machine.
But if that is how it works then I guess we'll deal with it.

Thanks again.

Terry
