You are totally stuck, because Active Sync will ONLY sync when run by an
administrator account. It just will not work properly without. This
behaviour has been known for a long time, and Microsoft have been asked to
change it, but they never did. And now that ActiveSync has been superseded
by Windows Mobile Device Centre in Vista, they definitely aren't going to.
