Is windows update possible without administrator rights



Dear all,

I have a very annoying problem in our company. Our staff is using
windows XP computers and it seems that microsoft automatic update
can't update the computers when they are logged in with their power
user accounts.

This means that I will have to go trough all the computers once in a
while and update computers with administrator rights. Our IT-support
claims that there is nothing that can be done about it.

So my question is can this be true? Is there really know way to have
automatic updates installed without me logging in with administrator
rights?

This is really annoying and takes lot of time, so help is GREATLY
appreciated.

Best regards,
Sirri
