Are there any security documents on how to best setup Microsoft Windows to run Hiawatha? At minimum, I would create a local user account without any special privileges, and I would run the service in that context. But I believe it might be possible to design a lower level of permission than the "Users" group that has much more restrictive access to folders outside of Hiawatha. To create such a user however would require very deep knowledge about WIndows and the required permissions for users to login interactively or as a service. If - for example - you denied a special account even read only access to Windows system files, quite likely the user would fail to load its environment completely or correctly.

Has anyone seen documentation on how to create extremely restricted user contexts to run services/applications like Hiawatha?
