Like the question says.... I'm running Server 2008 R2 but ways to find out for other versions of Windows are welcome as well.

The easiest way is to use Task Manager and go to the Processes tab and then look at the User Name column. Just make sure you tick the Show processes from all users checkbox in the bottom left hand corner. (Or first click the UAC prompt in the same place). alt text

But when using a desktop version of Windows, how would one tell if they app is running elevated or not? – paradroid Oct 31 '10 at 16:12
All versions of Windows have Task Manager. Hit CTL-ESC. – surfasb Feb 15 '11 at 12:25
@Surfasb - Control + Escape combination brings up the start menu - I think since XP. – William Hilsum Feb 15 '11 at 13:07
