Clear DNS problem

It means User Account Control (UAC) is blocking the operation. It's the same
thing that pops up those annoying dialogs when you run things in the control
panel or elsewhere that requires admin privledges. It doesn't show the
dialog for command line programs though.

I'm not in front of Vista to check if this works, but try right clicking on
"Command Prompt" in the Start Menu and picking "Run Elevated" from the menu
(if it's there). Then do your admin commands in that window.

Hello,

In order to do operation like this you must be running an elevated command
prompt. To do this:

- Click start
- Type: cmd
- When cmd appears in the menu under Programs, right-click it and click Run
as Administrator
- Click continue

You now have an "elevated" command prompt that can run the administrative
commands.

Just another way Vista is protecting you from malware
