A user of mine can't run a program - error message says
must be logged on as Administrator. In the security
settings for the folder I gave her modify permissions but
we still get the same message.
TIA

This could be a requirement that some Registry key, or files in another folder such as Windows or similar may need to be written to by the program, no matter what level of account is running it.
 
Hummm...doesn't sound like a well-written program. If I
can't find anything to modify in the registry is there any
other tip you can give me, short of allowing the user
modify rights to the Windows folder?
Thanks!

Contact the author of the program and ask them what needs to be changed. They would be the most familiar with the requirements of their program.
