Allow users with no admin rights to install a program 1

[Newb2IT]

Hey guys, I have a network Domain (2003), usually when I want a program to be automatically installed on client computers I do it using group policy (msi file)...I now have an exe file that starts the installation of a programs that needs to be on all client computers.....my users do not have admin rights therefore if i email them file to them they will not be able to install it. IS there a utility or anything that will allow this exe file to be installed on users that have no admin rights? Maybe somehow in the exe I can enter the credentials that will automatically install the program?? maybe a "run as admin"??

Hi,
See if this info about converting .exe to .msi helps:
