Application only runs for Admins

My UID is a member of Local Admins and Domain Admins. I installed 'HP
PrecisionScan' under my UID, but I cannot run the app. The process just
displays the "start-up splash" and nothing else until I kill it. On a hunch,
I logged in as Local Admin and Domain Admin and the application runs just
fine for both logins. The is nothing different about the security setting
for the application directory under 'Program Files'.

Thanks,

Patrick

Follow-up:
The profile for that UID was corrupted; other non-admin UID's allowed the
application to run. Instead of trouble-shooting something that I am not
familiar with, I removed the bad UID/profile and then re-created it by
logging in again. Then I restored the /Documents and Settings/<old
profile>/ directories for my critical apps and was back in business.
