I have windows xp pro on my home computer. I'm the administrator and I want to install java on my partner's limited user's account.
How do I log onto her account as an administrator to allow java to be downloaded and installed?

Login with the account you want to install the application too. Right click the installation file and select "Run As". You will be prompted to select the local account to run the installation as. Select an account with administrative privledges and enter the password.
