I think it depends on how things are set up. Provided you have the
adopaths 5,6,7 set as below, you will not need write access to paths 1,2,3
when installing new ado files; and I believe this is the standard setting.
(So, you only have to torture your network administrator once!)

I mean, will I have to torture my network administrator any time I wish to install a minor .ado file?
