Check the user permission.... that software may need local admin on that domain
account [yuck] or try logging in as admin and reghack the permissions on the
registry key for that software to give that program administrator permission
rights even while the computer is running as either "user" or "power user"

"Don't lose sight of security.  Security is a state of being, not a
state of budget.  He with the most firewalls still does not win.
Put down that honeypot and keep up to date on your patches.  Demand
better security from vendors and hold them responsible.  Use what
you have, and make sure you know how to use it properly and effectively."
