How can I put the administrator privileges to the built-in avast! Virus Cleaner (without real login) when I run as limited account?

Thanks

I'm afraid this feature is not available in the built-in Cleaner :(
You can use the standalone Cleaner (http://avast.com/eng/avast_cleaner.html) - it will let you enter the logon data when you start it.

TAP, to the standalone application you can use RunasSpc (http://www.snapfiles.com/dlnow/dlnow.dll?Inc=No&ID=109466) or right click it and choose RunAs on the Context Menu (as you probably already know).

It's not needed, the standalone Cleaner will ask you itself for the logon data.
