Remember that, on Vista, unlike previous systems, logging in as an 
administrator does not automatically give every process administrator 
privileges.  This is one of the most invasive and annoying attributes of 
Vista.  To get administrator privileges, a process has to be "elevated" 
(memories of Young Frankenstein).

As a first test, does it work if you run it from an elevated command line?
