I could explain (it's to do with the way in which
WMI method calls are set up) but I suggest you look at
this module <trumpet-blowing>:

http://timgolden.me.uk/python/wmi.html

which makes WMI much easier to work with.

Your example then becomes:

<code>
import wmi

c = wmi.WMI (computer="srv", user="Admin at zzz.ru", password="****")
pid, retval = c.Win32_Process.Create (CommandLine="notepad.exe")
</code>
