Re: Wierd, plz help

Never seen that before, but the only reason Windows would give you a privilege/permission error is because you are not logged in as the administrator or have administrative privileges.

Double check to make sure you're logged in to an account that has admin privileges.

Re: Wierd, plz help

add the Windows account you are using to the Administrator Group

Check your Windows help for more details. I dont know what the MMC for Local users and Groups management is called in english.....

Go there and scroll down to the O/S question. That should help.

Also try manually updating your Punk via

Re: Wierd, plz help

go to STart->settings -> control panel and then click on user accounts and something should pop up and make sure it says administrators next to your name. if it doesnt say that then go click on your name then click on properties and then set ur thingy to others and select administrator

IF your are administrator..then u mite have a virus and i suggest using a program called vx2finder to remove it

Re: Wierd, plz help

Make sure your user is a member of the Administrator group, and probably none other.
