Cannot run Filemon

I found the program Filemon (www.sysinternals.com ) extremley useful to set privileges.
When a program is run under a limited account, the error mesaage is usually "File cannot be openen". The program Filemon can tell me what file it is, so I can set read or write privileges.
However, under Vista I cannot use Filemon. It says that I need Debug privileges. So I set Debug privileges using the program secpol.msc. I log out and log in, and still Filemon says that I need Debug privileges.
(Perhaps I should call Onesimus and ask him to take another letter to Filemon.) -- José

Hello,
In Windows Vista, even though you are logged in as an administrator, the programs you run do not get the administrator privledges. You have to explicitly run a program as administrator by right-clicking it, then clicking run as administrator.
Unfortunately, even doing this does not allow FileMon to work... hopefully they will release an updated version soon :)
