System.Diagnostics.Process.Start

Hi All

Im using a windows service program written in vb.net using the
system.diagnostics.process.start to open exe files but im getting few
strange problems that seem to be caused by the fact they are being started
under a network service account instead of the logged on users account. Is
there a way i can start programs under the logged on users account ?

Thanks

What account is the service using? I believe it should use LocalSystem to
to start programs as the logged in user.

Hi robby

It is using localsystem for logon but say for example i open internet
explorer as soon as i type a web address in a get an error box saying cant
access c:\documents and settings\network service\... so im assuming by that,
that the programs are being launched under that account and not the logged
on users account ?
