Why don't you just deploy Chrome itself? Google has made a version of Chrome that can install without admin rights.
I have a feeling this was Google's plan all along: 1) get everybody dependent on Chrome with Chrome Frame, 2) make version of Chrome that installs without admin 3) remove support for Chrome Frame 4) $$$ profit from massive switchover to Chrome inside the enterprise as developers make an end run around IT by using the non-admin install.
