    Instead of pressing run you should save to desktop . then Right click on it and run as Admin

    If you want the prompting to stop you need to turn off the User account control . To do this you must :

    Start

    control panel

    User accounts

    Turn User account control on/off

    And untick the box

    Then Reboot the PC

    Hope this helps
