How do I set user privileges?
I have downloaded a program, but when I try to install it I get an error
message saying that I don't have user privileges to do this. I am doing it under the administrator account? Can anyone please help me?

How do I set user privileges?
This problem happens when a system is infected. install, update and run
antispyware programs like Adaware, Spybot Search & Destroy. CWShredder, The Cleaner, and scan the system with an up to date antivirus. If after doing so, you still don't have full control of your system, take ownership of the C:\drive in drive\Properties\Security. Done in normal mode in XP Pro after disabling simple file sharing, and Safe Mode in XP Home, check the KB article for instructions.
