Sounds like you need
LogonUser
ImpersonateLoggedonUser
CreateProcessAsUser
function calls to behave as a low priv user or launch a program as a low priv user.
I have never used these myself, but a quick scan through MSDN suggests they may be
what you need.
You may have already tried these of course!
