Sigh! You know, guys, XP has a feature, called "User Accounts", where every computer user has his/her own account, with his/her own rules and installed programs... As in, if I install the Oracle Toolbar, my mom(she has an account too ) won't have it installed, unless she eh, installs it herself

And it won't install on other's accounts?! When I install a program, it shows on the other accounts, too.

That's pretty much because you choose: basic/default install options, Custom, however leaves the fine tuning to you.
Plus that usually, when a program is installed, it creates shortcuts in c:\documents and settings\all users\desktop and c:\documents and settings\all users\ start menu
You can just move them to c:\documents and settings\[your username]\desktop and c:\documents and settings\[your username]\start menu
It may be a little tricky, but it does the trick. And when it comes to internet browser addons/extensions(as in, in our case here) you don't have to worry about this(tho' IE7 and above might screw things up, but hey, there's always Firefox and/or Opera)

Firefox should be very thankful to you for lots of spam ! Pft! I'm just a mere pawn, other people have websites dedicated to firefox, they buy firefox items(tho' I'm still waiting for my Firefox T-shirt ), they even burn Firefox to CDs, alongside with some handy extensions then randomly throw them into people's mailboxes. Just go to www.spreadfirefox.com for more details
