Game Explorer Manager assumes that the operating system is Vista and newer and
tries to determine whether it's running with elevated privileges:

0009:Call advapi32.OpenProcessToken(ffffffff,00000008,0032fe20) ret=0041b778
0009:Ret  advapi32.OpenProcessToken() retval=00000001 ret=0041b778
0009:Call
advapi32.GetTokenInformation(0000004c,00000014,0032fe24,00000004,0032fe28)
ret=0041b79a
0009:err:ntdll:NtQueryInformationToken Unhandled Token Information class 20!
0009:Ret  advapi32.GetTokenInformation() retval=00000000 ret=0041b79a
0009:Call KERNEL32.CloseHandle(0000004c) ret=0041b7af

If the token check fails, then it tries to launch another instance of itself
using ShellExecuteEx specifying the "runas" verb to request elevation. This
seems to be ignored on Wine, so the application simply goes into a loop
spawning itself repeatedly. The application would do the same on XP, except
that the XP runas dialog is shown repeatedly instead.
