Unblocking blocked programs

How can one avoid Vista blocking certain programs on startup? At
present the best I can do is manually start a program after Vista has
blocked it.

This worked for me.

1. Remove the program from the Startup folder or the Run registry key
2. Launch the Task Scheduler

e.g. Start Menu �¨ All Programs �¨ Accessories �¨ System Tools
3. From the Actions panel on the right, select Create Task...
4. Go to the Security Options on the General tab
1. Select an user account with administrative privileges
2. Select the radio button Run only when user is logged on
3. Check the box Run with highest privileges
5. Go to the Triggers tab and click New...
1. In Begin the task, select At log on
2. In the Settings options, select All users
3. In the Advanced Settings options, check the box Enabled
4. Click OK to close the dialog
6. Go to the Actions tab and click New...
1. For Action, select Start a program
2. In the Settings options, browse for the Program/Script you want to
execute on startup
3. Click OK to close the dialog
7. Go to the Settings tab
1. Check the box Run task as soon as possible after a scheduled start is
missed
2. Uncheck the box Stop the task if it runs longer than
8. Make any other desired settings
9. Click OK to save and close the task properties
