Is there any sort of program that gives tiered control over what an installer does to your system?
Rather than the traditional UAC: "Do you want this installer admin rights to do whatever it wants to your system?", is there a program that will help the installer process by asking a series of questions like, "Do you want this registry edit?", "Do you want these file permission changes?." Basically, the end result is that if you don't say yes to everything the program might not install right (which can possibly be a good thing).
