Windows 7 has a cool feature that allows usersto run a program as another user. Each time I try this, I recieve four Events in Event Viewer that equal up to access denied for the alternate profile. I also encounter this error when reaching the "Configuring your extender" section of the Windows Media Center Extender Setup, since the setup attempts to create an alternate profile.
Here are the message details from Event Viewer. Note that this still occurs if I try to run Media Center as an administrator, and even when I disable UAC, reboot, and try again.

Can someone help me with this problem? I've also tried disabling my Firewall (Norton 360 v 3.5, all updates).
I've also installed all windows updates, most current drivers, and have no other crashes occurring on the machine.
It is a Dell Vostro 1500, running Windows 7 Professional x86 (for now). This was a clean Install, and not an upgrade.
I've tried multiple extenders, and this happens each time. I just recently happened to notice that I receive the exact same errors when I try to run an application as another user.
