Keychain Scripting for Program Linking doesn't work! (sometimes}

Consider the block:
tell application "Keychain Scripting"
unlock keychain "Link" with password "blabla"
quit
end tell

Often, especially when I am not looking (i.e it runs scheduled unattended during night) it puts up an annoying dialog for name and password of a key for program linking rather than open all the keys directly as it should! This bad behaviour of keychain has plagued me for months!

What is wrong??

The keychain in question holds keys to three machines - one key each for AppleShare via AppleTalk and one key each for Program Linking. Why does it *sometimes* put up the dialog for name and password, whereas it works perfectly when I run the script (applet) from the keyboard??
It is as if there is a timing problem - something is sleepy during night and the key doesn't get open! Extremely annoying and I don't know what to do about it!?

Sorry for asking the same question once again, but I got zero answers the last time (one week ago), and I simply *have to* find a remedy....
Mac OS 9.2.2, AS 1.6
