I get this same error.  Also on file rm.exe.

Also, tries to write data/temp files to a subdirectory of the program 
directory, which a non-admin doesn't have user rights to do on Windows vista or 
after. 

One super-hacky way of dealing with this might be to run the programs through 
dosbox as I did in version 1 of my project here (ReadSeq.exe replacement for 
BioEdit):

I also received this error.

I tried replacing 'ls.exe', 'cat.exe' and 'rm.exe' with versions from the 
GNUwin32 project (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/), but still had no luck. The 
splash screen pops up for a couple seconds, and you get a flash of the main 
window, but nothing else.
