Does nothing show up at all, even in the taskbar?  If so then I don't 
know since I've never used this, but my guess is that it is not allowing 
the task to display a UI.  (Even services need to be given special 
permission to do that.)  Does a window display if you use schtasks to 
run notepad.exe for example?
