Debugging mode

Does anyone know if it's possible to turn on USB debugging mode externally? In other words, without manually using the menu system? I want to transfer an app to the phone without requiring user to turn on debugging if it's not already on.

You can do this without debugging mode on. Just put the APK (the app) on to their SD card and use a file manager to find and install it.
