Starting up an external program with Win32::Process::Create fails for some, no others?

Can't Post

I know there are other things I can call, but either they block the script from continuing, or I don't have the module in my ActivePerl install (64-bit v5.14.2.1402). Really I just don't see why I shouldn't be able to use this call. It is working for some programs that I call, but not for others.
The EXEs that don't work do have one thing in common, and different than the others that do work. That is when they are executed a Windows UAC dialog pops up asking me if I want to allow this "unknown publisher" to make changes. I made them all run "As Administrator" and turned UAC completly off, but neither of those changes helped.
Any ideas? Here is the error I get and the code:
Died at library/OpenWinsBurning/ShortCutter.pm line 143.
while executing
"::perl::CODE(0x4042cd8)"
invoked from within
".f3.b9 invoke"
("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 [list $w invoke]"
(procedure "tk::ButtonUp" line 24)
invoked from within
"tk::ButtonUp .f3.b9"
(command bound to event)
sub execute {
my $this = shift; ## get ref to calling object
my $exitStat = 0;
## This is how you execute another program, and it NOT block the current script
## (as opposed to system()).
my $proc;
Win32::Process::Create(
$proc,
$this->{mLink}->{'Path'},
"",
0,
NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS,
$this->{mLink}->{'WorkingDirectory'}
) || die $this->errorReport();
return $exitStat;
