Hi kanjiman.
Right click on the shortcut to the program and select 'Run as Administrator'
to launch the program for the first time.
In Vista, even though you have an administrative account, it runs as a
standard user unless and until your administrator credentials are required.
In this case, the program needs your administrative credentials to launch
for the first time. A fully Vista-aware program would give you a UAC prompt
to provide your administrative permissions.
