hi guys. just to maybe save some of the admins time on here, i would like to pass on a piece of information i got from "md usa spybot fan" even when you use an admin account on vista, it wont let you do much that could potentially damage your computer. all you need to do is right click and click "run as administrator" or if you need to constantly run an app. right click, go to properties and go to the security tab. then you can change the permissions. hope this helps
