sytem P4 1.9 Ghz HCL beanstalk PC. Windows XP Professional.

i recently opened a user account in Xp with limited user permissions to access internet. but when i log on to account norton System Works Antivirus 2004 showing problem (some configrations not update. you need administrator previlage to load). Studio Ver 9.0 did not run at all and start using CPU usage 100%.

some other problems like windows registry repair SE startup entry also showing problem and refuse to load.

Are these programms need Account with administrator previllage only or some other problem ?

all these programmes are run fine in my administrator account.

"You need admin privileges to load", it means you accnt is a limited account. So u create a new use Admind account (better do it from Safe Mode).
