The RUN AS cmd doesn't seem to accept a password parameter, unless supplied
'on the fly'.
Unfortunately it's not an install problem. The app in question is supplied
with Thinkpad laptops and is necessary to switch the wlan radio on and off.
( Can't understand why one should be epected to be an administrator to do
that ).
At this point the whole RUN AS thing doesn't seem to have much sense to me.
If one has to have the admin password to use it, he might just as well put
himself in the admin group and save himself the hassle.
