Install Virtualbox Without Admin Privileges In Vista

At work, I am allowed to install software on my own as long as it doesn't touch the registry or require Administrator rights. I can install things like Total Commander, Eclipse, or Opera USB, for example. However, VirtualBox won't install because it needs Administrator rights. I am NOT looking for a way to get around the Administrator role (meaning a cheat to grab Administrator rights by a back door or such.) I am simply asking if there is a workaround for installing it without having to be Administrator. I suspect not, but I thought I'd ask. I've considered installing it on a different machine and then transferring the files, but I have no idea what it does in the registry and if that would even work.

Now I run extension 4.1.2 in my user-instance of VirtualBox Manager and V 4.1.4 when started as admin. How would this work? What exactly should I do now? Check if there's a VirtualBox folder somewhere under 'C: Users AppData Local VirtualStore', and if so move it away or delete it - that's where stuff written under the 'C: Program Files' directory without administrator rights is redirected to, so if you installed the 4.1.2 extension pack as a normal user and run VirtualBox now as a normal user as well those redirected files take precedence over the files you then installed to 'C: Program Files' as Administrator. That's a mechanism introduced with Vista to make sure old programs that happily write into 'C: Program Files' for regular users keep working under newer versions of Windows.
