Have you tried making the accounts administrator accounts, performing
maintanence, then setting them back to limited accounts? Do this all using
the control pannel, but there is a backwards way into it:

Run>Control Userpasswords2>Select User>Properties>Group
Membership>Other>Administrators

*Note* If using this approach to change the User's Rights, RESTRICTED USER
is the same as LIMITED (when using the control pannel)

Hope this works.

Write back, letting me know how you have got on.
