Does it work when you use runas (I know this is not a permanent solution
for you, but as a part of the debugging). IIRC, you said it did and the
problem was just that runas prompted for password - but was this on the
samme machine?

If it does work with runas, then you have a bug in the third party
program you're using, and you need to take it up with them.
