A User cannot get quite as much information as an Administrator, but there 
is quite a bit available. If WMI is installed, that is probably the easiest 
way. The psapi.dll offers another handy interface. The last ditch is to 
open the PerformanceData and paw around, but this tends to be a little slow 
since it really isn't a static part of the Registry, but is built on the 
fly.
