Administrator Problems

Hi everyone.

I posted a thread yesterday about problems with uninstalling programs.
Which in the end I managed to do successfully. But I have a new
problem!!!

At the moment I am trying install a new version of Itunes which I
downloaded from the website. However I have tried repeatedly to install
but my computer continues to say that the administrator has set policies
to prevent the installation. Also that I do not have sufficient access
and to contact the system administrator . . .

Is there a way I can get around this? If not who would be the system
administrator that I would contact???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dibdab

go to control panel ,user accounts ch to see if you are listed as a
standard user or administrator, while you are there disable user account
control,reboot then try to install the program. don't forget to reenable
user account control when done.
P.S. if when cking you are listed as a standard user click change
account type and make yourself an administrator . hope this helps

You are the administrator of the computer.

Activate the account, login to the computer with the account and try it.
