Password required Popup

I've been trying to download some software from the internet, and Vista keeps
blocking it with a Pop up box saying "Windows needs your permission to
continue - Type administrator password". But there's no box to type the
password in!

Also, both accounts (Admin and User) seem to be operating in Standard mode,
so I can't operate the Administrator (and every time I try to, the Pop up box
appears again!)

Can anyone help me?

RE: Password required Popup

I have the identical problem! I expect this to become a system error
microsoft will need to patch!
