Running Administrative Processes at Boot w/o User Intervention

I have two applications that require administrative priveliges that
I like to run when Windows starts, except I have to go through a 6-
click procedure just to get those two programs running when I boot.
I wish maybe the programmers would wise up and write it as a service
but they haven't, so now I am dealing with it. Does anyone have any
ideas as to how I can have these two programs run automatically
without my intervention at boot? If not, shouldn't there be some
kind of feature like that in UAC? Please SP1, Please!!

Hi,

You can't, not without disabling UAC. If there were a way, then trust me the
virus writers would be taking advantage of it.
