By any chance, did you configure a profile with admin privileges and manually copy it over the Default user profile?

If I give admin rights to a user and try to open winrar file system will prompt 'do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher..... this computer' with options 'yes' or 'no '

I want the same way for all users without admin rights
That's understandable, but I'm trying to help you determine why the applications are behaving differently for standard users and my question still remains:  before you deployed Windows 7, did you configure a profile with admin privileges and manually copy it over the Default user profile?

I took image of a work-group PC and not a domain added

User in that PC will have admin rights I guess
If you don't mind me saying so, it's a rather bold step to give end-users full admin rights on their machines.  It could lead to a great deal of troubleshooting.

Before you deployed that Windows 7 image, did you configure a profile with admin privileges and manually copy it over the Default user profile?  Did you make any changes to the Default user profile?

no
Remove both softwares , and reinstall them back from admin user, while asks for do u want this application to run for other users, say yes,
if this didnt solve, put the users in power user group and dt way it will sure work , ;)

err...That should be "Launch with Windows", as I have circled.  Not run on startup as I said above.
