That you are running Windows  Read   http   en wikipedia org wiki Sudo  It basically allows you to execute an application with elevated privileges  If you want to achieve a similar effect under Windows  open an administrative prompt and execute your command from there  Under Vista  this is easily done by opening the shortcut while holding Ctrl Shift at the same time   That being said  it might very well be possible that your account already has sufficient privileges  depending on how your OS is setup  and the Windows version used
