I think many consider it bad practice to use alternate credentials with admin privileges during logon.
I have never done this, but I think you can use
- KiXCrypt
- Kix2Exe
- AdminScriptEditor
- ...
You would pack the script together with the kix32.exe or wkix32.exe in an executable. The exe will unpack the script to a temp folder and launch it with the alternate credentials you provided.
But at that very moment, your users would be able to catch that script and get your admin credentials.




Ok, Thanks again for all the info. Witto, I just wanted to comment on this security issue. I'm guessing when the script is decrypted before it is run, the script is then run in clear text? Is this really a big worry? The user would have to know exactly when and where to look to get the password, wouldn't they?
