8.75 times out of 10 when you can run a piece of code that CF can't it
is a permission issue. When you run it, your credentials are used.
When CF runs it as a scheduled task, the credentials that CF is
configured to run under, 'localSystem' is default on Windows, is used.

Try running CF under a user with the necessary credentials to do what
you want it to do.

I forgot to mention that I am running CF 8. I tried putting on the 8.0.1 update and that didn't help either.
