We really need to find a way for people to find this information easier, so many people do not understand that Windows 7 and Vista have this security issue that the XP and older didn't have. In the meantime please try the following:
Go to your shortcut for your program you are trying to run.
Right click on the shortcut and choose properties.
Choose the Compatibility tab and at the bottom of that tab put a check in the Run as Administrator box.
That should fix it, let us know if not

Hiya Michael,
We really need to find a way for people to find this information easier
Jo ann could you possible make a thread in html editor forum, with blatantly obvious heading
one reply with the explanation
and lock the thread so it cant be responded to
and get CC to force it near top of thread list so it stays there permanently ?????

I wouldn't exactly call it a security issue. You shouldn't have to run any program as an administrator. Now, that would be a security issue.
YEP, and thanks to Bill's Minions that's exactly what many of us have to do on a variety of programs that we shouldn't have to, including (some) but not limited to CC's programs.

Many people never have that problem, Phil. Many people also use Windows and never acquire a virus, either. I guess it's just bad luck, or something.
