Install Chrome without admin rights
At my agency we actively encourage users to switch to a browser other than IE. Unfortunately I understand there are many IT departments in the world who still maintain a draconian insistence on IE. Without administrator privileges it's not possible to install Firefox, but luckily Google has built Chrome to install without them! Take that tyrannical IT overlords! Faster and safer browsing without your permission! I understand there may be some GP or something somewhere that disables this but for the most part it seems to work. Another downside is that the default Chrome installer only makes the application available for a single user. Google has thoughtfully provided an alternate installer which addresses this issue as well (alternate installer DOES need admin though).
