Default Unable to Uninstall a Program


How can I uninstall a program (from Control Panel), when it says I don't
have sufficient rights?

I am the only user on this Vista Ultimate machine and appear to have all the
rights? Is there someway to go to a Full Administrator or get myself some
rights to uninstall this program causing some problems

Turn off UAC and try again.
