Standalone Not Running for a Customer

A person who has bought a license for a standalone of mine is having a 
problem running it. Here is the note he sent. Does anyone know the 
answer to his problem, so I can help him? I made the program with Rev 
2.1.
Thanks,
Tom

  * iMac
  * OS 10.4.10
  * Managed user account, restricted to certain programs, no admin 
rights.

  I installed the program and I can run it fine as an admin. However, I 
can't give the student (non-admin) account permission to use it. It 
doesn't appear in the list of applications to select. If I click 
"locate..." and browse to the application and select it that way, it 
tells me it won't run with the limitations I've select, but it doesn't 
tell me the specific problem.

  I tried adding permissions to change system preferences and such 
things, but I still get the error. It seems like maybe it doesn't want 
to run at all for a managed user account, but I don't see why it would 
need admin rights to do anything it's doing.

  Any ideas on how I can get this to work?
