Oh I just chased back through this thread... You want to
fire up IE, I didn't catch that before, I didn't look that close at the specific
process you wanted fire, just that you wanted to fire a process. You should
still be able to do this with a startup script with AT as long as you specify
interactive, it should pop in the current interactive session but I would be
concerned of the security context it runs in which would be localsystem. In
order to schedule something in the security context of another ID you will need
to be able to specify userid/password which isn't fun either since someone will
probably be able to see it if they are bright.
What you want is something that opens an IE window in the
context of the current user at a specified time. I am not aware of anything
that will do that. You almost need a special app that can be launched by
the user in the logon script in their security context that will sleep until the
specified time and then fire the app. Here is a point where being an admin with
programming skills is nice though you may be able to do this with a script. Have
the script fire another process that hides itself from the task bar and pops
into the screen at the designated time.
I will think about this. There might be a way to pull
this off with a perl script.

that difficult to get a popup of IE on ALL users desktop at a specific

The problem is the
at.exe command can only be run by administrators. How can I allow
non-admins to run at.exe therefore allowing my script to work.

a user specific task or a computer based task? If it is a task scheduled to run
after the user logs on I'm sure it is permissions, or lack there of.

to run a .vbs script to create a Scheduled Task. It works with Domain
Admins, but not with regular users. How can I fix this?
