Deleting malware ETC.

Hello I am writing today to see if someone could possably help me. When I run
my spybot and it tells me when I have a problem and I go into delete those
problems it says that I do not have Administrator priviliges. How do I get
those priviliges?

Thanks for all your help

I could guess that you're running Vista and tell you that you may have to
"take ownership" of the folders and files in question before you can delete
them, and that just because your account has administrative priveleges, that
does not mean you operate with those priveleges as default, and that you
need to "run as administrator", but that would only be a guess, as you've
given us no facts at all to base specific suggestions on.

If I've guessed correctly, use Windows Help to get guidance on "run as
administrator" snd "take ownership".
