UAC blocks startup program

I have detected a very strange thing in (probably) UAC.
I have an application called AudaUpdate.exe. This app has a "run" entry in
the registry. When Vista Business is started the app is blocked and and
requesting permission to run.
Now, the strange thing is, when I rename the app to a name not containing
Update, the app is starting up without any problem, no permission to run is
required.

Has anyone an idea how to solve that? Switching off the UAC won't be the
solution.

P.S. I can't change the app name as there are approx 20'000 installation out
in the field and they are working perfect on all other Windows OS.
