I have a development licence (at least, I think that's what I have!) So if I type that command at the windows command prompt, it runs fine with no splash. If I put the same command in the windows 'scheduled tasks' list, I come back in the morning to find the splash waiting on my desktop.

Maybe it has something to do with the owner of the process? When I run it myself, it's obviously mine. Perhaps as a scheduled task, it's a system user, and the licence doesn't like that?

I'm afraid it's probably something meaner than that, though. I discovered today that if I log in remotely (via RDP), I also can't run idl.exe from the command prompt. The licence seems to block anything running when I'm not physically at the computer (I have a MAC address-locked licence).
