Starting a program as an administrator during login

I have a program that needs administrator privileges to start when I log
in. But Vista SP1 64-bit won't let it start until I tell it that the
program is OK. Is there a fix around this?

The program is RocketDock. Normally, RocketDock doesn't need it. But
if you want a SysStats docklet, you either run it with administrator
priveleges or it crashes.

Can someone help?

Hi,

There is a method described here on how to disable UAC for a particular
application:
