changing your network connection settings (try and change your IP address using runas ) is one of them.
I launch a command prompt as admin, then type "control panel". Voila, a control panel where everything will run as admin Including Network Connections.

Yeah, XP Home users will have to create an admin user.
Oh crap! I didn't know there was a command to launch control panel from the command line.

Here's that error Home Edition will give, if anyone is interested.

If I do so happen to find a way around it without using Safe Mode, i'll be sure to post it but it isn't of much priority.

I have a feeling this might be fixable by tweaking a some local security policy option.

I don't have an XP Home CD avialable to me...just pro, so I can't investigate.
