  I've seen this behavior before from an application that (attempts
to) register DLLs or OCX custom controls when it invokes those
components, rather than at startup.  So some rarely-used feature is
invoked by the users, it sees the component is not registered, tries
to register it, hits restrictive permissions, pukes and dies.  You run
it as admin, it registers the needed components, now it works for the
users.

  As for why 2008 vs 2003, Microsoft keeps cleaning up the security in
Windows with every release.  Older releases were more permissive.
