Did you compare the registry before and after you type this user/password?
Mostly, these sorts of things ("need to run this software as 
administrator for the first time") just add some registry entries.
You could use WininstallLE to do such a scan.

See here, I think it's similar:

http://wpkg.org/index.php/FlowFact#other

Software doesn't work as a non-Administrator user unless you start it as 
Administrator for the first time:

start /i %SOFTWARE%\flowfact\FlowFact.EXE
ping -n 30 127.0.0.1
taskkill /f /im setupadd.exe
ping -n 120 127.0.0.1
taskkill /f /im flowfact.exe

Hmm?
I don't think I understand what you mean.
