I need to be able to run a program (exe) as the administrator while the actual user is logged in. Basically I need to mimic the “Run as” in windows explorer when you right click on a program it allows you to click on Run as to run it as a different user. Anyone knows how to do this?

One way would be to shell Runas with the commandline parameters.
