Seemingly I'm having Administrator problems

Greetings.

Brand new computer w/ Vista home Premium. I'm set up as the admin and am
the only user profile and the only user. When trying to remove a program
I've tried but dislike, I'm told to log in as the admin. I already am as far
as I know. When I do check my user profiles I'm the only one, not even a
guest is set up and it lists me as the admin next to my icon. Any ideas?

Hello Brian,

It's possible that this is a program that is unaware of the new security
model in Vista, and is failing to request elevated rights to uninstall.

If you look in the Program Files folder for the program, you should be able
to find an uninstall.exe or similar uninstaller. Right-click on it and
select 'Run as Administrator'.
