Default General question

Under user accounts I am listed as administrator, which I am. This is my personal computer. I am the only one that uses it, yet it keeps telling me that I am NOT admin and should have an administrator run my programs. Why is that and what can I do about it? Don

What OS are you running? Windows 7? XP?
If Win 7, what is the User Account Control (UAC) set to?
