"You do not have the proper privileges to install the application"

I am not sure if this is an IE7 issue or a Vista issue. I am using Vista Beta
2. I am trying to use a corporate VPN site which installs and runs a Juniper
ActiveX control to connect via VPN. I get prompted and tell IE to go ahead
and install the ActiveX control. I also turned off Protected Mode in IE and
got the same result.

It starts the installation process, and then comes back with the following
dialog:
You do not have the proper privileges to install the application

Works fine in Win XP Pro SP3 and IE6.
Any ideas on whether or not I can fix this?

 

I'm facing the same problem on Windows Vista Permium.

Did you got any solution. If you have any then let me know plz.

 

I did not read the original post, but it seems to me like you should save
the install file to a disk (if it's not on one already), right-click the
file and choose "Run as Administrator" and provide administrative
credentials.

 

Hello All,
I also having the same issue with Juniper so I hope someone has or will
come up with a resolution soon.

Right click on the installation .exe and select Run as Administrator?

 

You will need to run as administrator so locate the .exe file which relates
to the application you are trying to install (usually setup.exe) Right click
on the setup file and, from the drop down menu, select the 'run as
administrator' option.
