I'd right click the program you're trying to run and click 'run as administrator'.

Control Panel -> System and Security -> Action Center -> Change User Account Control Settings -> Slide to "Never Notify"

This is on Win 7, but I think Vista has the same deal. You're looking for "User Account Control" settings.

Get her dad drunk, or do it out of sight.

Otherwise you'll have to add yourself as having full control of the folder. Make sure the check boxes for apply to all sub-folders is checked as well.
