How to install an App that asks for admin rights without giving it admin rights? I want to install some software downloaded from the web, but it is asking for admin rights to my Mac OS X 10.6 laptop. I don't want to give it admin rights as I don't trust it (may have viruses or who knows.)
Is there a way to install it in a local sandbox without giving it admin rights? I don't want to use a Mac VMWare image. I just want to create a local directory in my home directory and install the App there so I can easily rm it and at least limit whatever damage it could do to non-admin locked things.
