Thanks Sam. That was it. I had forgotten that in my attempts to get this
program working I had briefly tried making the standard account an
administrator account. It must have been during this time that I marked the
program to "Run...as admin". (That'll teach me to introduce multiple
variables during diag.) Anyway, I made the account Admin again and was able
to uncheck the box. Thanks for the hint.
