Damn, that's my fault. I thought the try/catch I used would handle that, and 
I didn't have a restricted account to test with. I guess Windows isn't nice 
enough to give me a simple exception for that and just bails instead (Or 
maybe I just caught the wrong exception). I'll fix and submit a pull 
request.

Couple questions:

- Did you get that after it prompted you for a "yes/no", or did it not get 
that far?

- Was that message displayed in the cmd prompt or in a dialog box?
