You could password protect/encrypt the main exe file of the application, with something like Protect Exe

This may cause problems with UAC, not actually tested it

What I can tell, Protect Exe looks like it writes to the Program Files (even though it doesn't have to). This will create issues with UAC. – surfasb Dec 31 '11 at 18:57
