RunAs Question

I realize that you can force runas credential prompt when executing a
program. However, is it possible to tell xp to run a program with specific
credentials without prompting you for one?

Thanks in advance

Not for a specific program, no. If you use the /SAVECRED switch, it does so for everything on the computer. An alternative would be to use a VBScript program to run the executable. The script can be encrypted with the VBScript Encoder to hide the username/password used. One note: if the script is executing a command line utility, the password may still be exposed in the Command Prompt window while the program executes.
