I use Windows 2000 SP4 and after playing around with the registry i discovered that the "Run As" context entry is missing, even when i hold shift key.
The last thing i remember is editing the LaunchPermission in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AppId\{D68BD5B2-D6AA-11d0-9EDA-00A02488FCDE} but restoring the key didnt work so i guess i'm missing something.
how can i restore it?
edit: one should add "Extended"="" to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\runas and @="\"%1\" %*" to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\runas\command in order to get it back for exe files.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;you can delete 'Extended' to always show this context entry
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\runas]
"Extended"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\runas\command]
@="\"%1\" %*"

RunAs is nice. I use SudoWin, its so much better. The only thing is if you want to retain CD Burning rights download the Nero BurnRight application

Sudowin Homepage
Nero Buirnrights

The reason for this is because Sudowin changes your account to a limited user account for security.

Thanks rjdohnert for introducing Sudo for Windows. Looks like a nice thing to try.
