We've tripped over this and argued with EMC about it to no end.  The problem (as we've experienced it) is that NetWorker (arrogantly) puts its install directory at the start of the Windows PATH.  The solution (for us) is to manually put the NetWorker directory where it belongs... (which I assure you is not FIRST IN LINE)
