How can I programmatically tell if the logged in user to a WinNT 4.0 machine is an Administrator?
 
One fairly accurate way is by validating with the password. You know the name of the admin... make sure by forcing him to verify his identity. See the VB 5&6 General Discussion FAQ area for a way to verify the logged-on user with his password.
