Administrator?????

Hi,

I first posted this under Vista General, but then saw this group so I
decided to post it here also.

I have a notebook with only one user, ME. I have administrator rights, but
in trying to do certain things (as simple as running program) I'm told that
I have to have Administrator privileges. What am I missing??????

For example. If I double click on certain icons on my desktop the program
will open, but not work correctly. If I right click on the icon and select
"Run as Administrator" the program works fine. On some icons I get the
message that I need to be an Administrator to open the program.

If I go into User Accounts, I'm the only one listed and it says
"Administrator."

I'm running Vista Home Premium.

Thanks,
Phil
