Vicente can find the answer at the following FAQ:

Vista is a bit overzealous with its security settings. Even if
your login account has administrator privileges, or even if you
are logged in explicitly as administrator, you still must right-click
on the shortcut to an application and choose 'Run as Administrator'
before that application will have permission to update files in its
installation directory.
