cannot create subdirectory

I want to install kompozer under
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Kompozer\...
When I try to mkdir ...
C:\Program Files\> mkdir "Mozilla Kompozer"
I get access denied
Can somebody make a constructive suggestion?
Tnx,
Charles

Run the command prompt as administrator. Right-click the shortcut, select
Run as Administrator from the context menu.

With Vista, if you install to Program Files, it breaks many programs.
Install it somewhere else and avoid the headaches.

You Don't Know What You Are Talking About. Hell, You Can't Even Install
Vista. Just FYI. You Can't Even Afford Vista. Just FYI.

I strongly suggest you let it install to it's default location.

Ummm...no.

You must right-click and click "Run as administrator."

He already knew where the command prompt was, because he was already trying
