First off, hello - i I am new to this forum. Thanks for your help!

Our pc was overtaken by Brave Sentry last night. I did some online research and ran two programs to remove the program, but I am still having problems. I've followed removal instructions that I've found online, but I can't complete all the steps because I get a message that says I am restricted from doing so and to contact the administrator (of course, I am the administrator). E.G. I can't get into my task manager, unable to get into my properties, and my wallpaper is still different, still getting popups (though fewer than before I ran the removal programs) etc. I keep getting a message that says that the task manager is diabled by the administrator, and I can't seem to get into control panel.

My question is, how can I restore my administrator ability so I can hopefully rid my computer of this problem??

Thanks for your help!!
