I am a computer administrator for a school in which some students take

administrative rights to the machine in order to run the program,
compile anything they have made etc.

Whoever told you that was wrong.

You might need Admin rights to install the JDK and the IDE (depending on the IDE
and the location where you install it). But at least NetBeans runs fine with a
non-Admin Account even if NetBeans itself is installed in a protected directory
(e.g. c:\Program Files). I'm pretty sure Eclipse does not need Admin rights to
run as well.

okay the one we are running is JSDK version 1.4.2_10

so your saying once it is installed, anyone should be able to use it
and compile without any special rights?
