Cannot run Filemon

I found the program Filemon (www.sysinternals.com ) extremley useful
to set privileges.

When a program is run under a limited account, the error mesaage is
usually "File cannot be openen". The program Filemon can tell me what
file it is, so I can set read or write privileges.

However, under Vista I cannot use Filemon. It says that I need Debug
privileges. So I set Debug privileges using the program secpol.msc. I
log out and log in, and still Filemon says that I need Debug
privileges.

(Perhaps I should call Onesimus and ask him to take another letter to
Filemon.)

Hello,

In Windows Vista, even though you are logged in as an administrator, the
programs you run do not get the administrator privledges. You have to
explicitly run a program as administrator by right-clicking it, then
clicking run as administrator.

Unfortunately, even doing this does not allow FileMon to work... hopefully
they will release an updated version soon :)
