hi ,all
Here is my problem ,
I log as Administrator , but when I try to change start up programs , I got a message ``an access denied error was returned while attempting to change a service. You may need to log on using an Administrator account to make the specified changes.`` and this is only a message, the changes can be made anyways
Why am I having this message, checked for viruses -all clean
Thankz

Sure checked for virus', but how about Spyware ???

Spyware includes ----
Adware, Dialers, Browser Hijackers, Trojans, Cookies,
Key Loggers, Trackware, and other Malware while browsing the internet.

Most Virus and Spyware scans are likely to work better in Windows Safe-Mode.

Hmm, i had this problem too. No viruses or spyware because it happend after a fresh format and install using the Acer Recovery Partition. I was logged in as the administrator so I couldn't figure out why it was doing this. Anyway, i just ignored it because even after the warning, it would still make the changes for me.

If you really want to know why it happened the only explanation we can give you is ...That's Windows.
