I am using Vista Business 64bit on a Mac Pro. This is my first time ever using Windows so it's taking me some time to get use to how it works. This is my computer and I am the only person who works on it. I have downloaded and installer application that I do not want to use. So I tried to delete it but I keep getting the message "you need permission to perform this action". How can I delete this?
Need permission to perform..?

Hope this helps,

I do need to do that for some, but others are just files that I downloaded and unzipped but did not install.

Vista has increased user access control. Just moving a text file can get the 'You don't have permission' popup. Speaking from first hand experience.
