Answer 1

Well, if the program breaks in limited account, it is asking for something it cannot get. I'd start with Process Monitor - it shows you what files/registry entries/etc your program is accessing, and whether it's successful or fails. Many times, the issue is something quite trivial - e.g. trying to write to the HKLM registry hive and failing to recover from "Permission denied".

Also, check out Aaron Margosis' page, the "LUA Buglight" program can help you find more issues that can crop up in limited mode.
