You want to trade a problem that is an inconvenience to you, for one that is a security 
risk for every one else. IMO, that's a poor trade off. There are tools that will 
"push" these changes to a users computer whenever they log in. I don't know the details, 
that was something my staff did when I managed an IT group. I'm sure that a little 
googling will turn something up.
