If you can, get rid of Windows Vista. Such OS does not exist. :-)

That's because UAC is turned on in Vista and turned off in your Windows 7 machine.

It's easy enough to fix: "C# manifest run as administrator"[^]

Thank you so much.
Abhinav just reported that the power plant was hacked. This is not true. Our PoIP power donor site is under attack, which we plan to mitigate in less than next 24 hours.
