Need helps on installing Vista

[f117b2]

Got a new PC from DELL with Vista Home Premiun, tried to install S&B v1.6, and got the error:

Error writing to registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

RegSetValueEx Failed: Code 5.
Access is denied.
BTW: I actived the Administrator acct, logon as an "Administrator", and ran it by right mouse click and then select "Run as Administrator".

Any ideas?

Appreciate for all helps.

Hello.

Right click on the Spybot install file (which is a .exe and will look like "spybotsd160") and click "Run as Administer"..

That is exactly what I did.

f117b2,

Are you running McAfee as your antivirus?

I had an issue with that where I had to disable Access protection or add Spybot's .exe files to the exception list for McAfee before it would let me install it or update.
