UAC often causes folders large and small to deny access. While it is
touted by the cerebral types with marketing and business insight as a major
enterprise marketing tool, I respectfully believe that the UAC team could
have prevented what I call Vista's arbitrary and capricious random lockouts
and should fix them, but they have no plans to do so in Vista--maybe in the
next OS hopefully, but I wouldn't be surprised if they don't. You need to
take ownership of explorer. Why is a great question.
Type explorer in the search box above start button>right click
explorer>click properties>security tab.

"If I had to put my key in my lock every time I got up off the couch, you'd
better believe I'd take the lock out, and damn the security."
Said by a population of people on their websites greater than the population
of Seattle and Redmond Washington.
