I think there's just no way to solve this. You see, with VS.NET2005, MS
ships newer versions of MFC and CRT (versions 8.0). Before, those dll's
were considered project based, i.e. you were not allowed to install them
in the system folders (c:\windows and below) but you had to install them
in your project folder.
Now, with the new versions, MS decided that these must be installed in
the system folder as side-by-side assemblies. The merge modules they
provide for this take care of the installation to make sure everybody
installs them correctly. And since they are installed in the system
folder, you must have Admin priviledges for installing them.
