Start an interactive process under Local Syste

Hello,

with XP/2003 and older systems, I was able to run an application under a
local system account using for task scheduler, for example:

at 10:00 /INTERACTIVE cmd.exe

but this is not available with Vista/2008. Is there any other method, how to
start an interactive (visible) process under System credentials?

psexec lets you do this:

I don't think I need to lecture you on the dangers of having an interactive
process running as LocalSystem, do I?
