Vista Driving Me Mad..........AFTER JUST 1 HOUR !!!!!!
Hi Guys,
going mad here. Have just got a new laptop that came with Vista Home Premium. This is my first experience of Vista..................andit's not going too well. Have just loaded some anti-virus & anti spyware programmes and after running Spybot S&D it has identified 12 entries under the banner of PartnerBHO. IT WON'T LET ME FIX SELECTED PROBLEMS !!!! A) I am not the administrator. I AM. IT'S MY LAPTOP & no-one else has touched it & B) The associated files are still in use (in memory). What's going on ?? It's only been out of the box for one hour. All the best, Slime. |

Right click on Spybot and select: "Run as Administrator" and see if that will let you fix it. But I would suggest asking on the Virus section of this forum and hear from one of the experts before you delete it.
Vista is a good program, you will however have some problems learning how to do some things as they have changed from the way XP worked. |

Thanks Bubba,
but is there a way of setting myself as administrator 'globally' ? I mean over my whole laptop, rather than individual programmes. Slime. |

Yeah there is in Control Panel, I'll let you find it though because if you've just got it there's a million and one things you'll want to personalise.
I'll find it anyway though so if you can't get it I can point you in the right direction  EDIT: Actually I think I'm getting confused. You can disable UAC in user accounts, thats the annoying blue windows. However I don't think you can stop the yellow administrator ones.. they're not common though, it's only for programs that delve deep in system files.
