IIRC, when I first ran the world server I did so under the guest account, and it worked okay. When in doubt, run under the guest account.
And that's really good advice for any unknown executables. Several times I've run programs under the guest account because I wasn't 100% sure what the program did, and the guest account has very limited privileges which limits the damage the program could do if it had any kind of trojan in it.
*Edit* no I'm not suggesting the Emu server has a trojan in it. But I'm trying to say that if there WAS a vulnerability in the code that somebody could exploit, if the most damage they could do is whatever guest can do... which is... practically nil.
