I am having the same problems I think it may be one of the latest Windows
(Security?) updates causing it as I formatted my drive and reinstalled
Windows XP Pro SP2 and once all the latest upates were downloaded and
installed the problem came back I have tried toggling DEP and rebooting but
its still no good. I can however right click the exe file or a shortcut and
if I do a 'run as' and select the userid that I am already logged onto the
machine with, the programs start up ok. This problem is only occurring on one
of my pc's, an HP Pavilion 724a it is not occurring on my old pc or my IBM
laptop all of which have XP at the same level.
I would love to know which update it is so that I can remove it from my
system.
