Nope, it's NOT a joke, of course!

You shouldn't launch LameXP with elevated rights (admin), as it was designed to operate with "normal" rights (user). If you launch LameXP with elevated rights, then all the tools launched by LameXP (like MediaInfo, LAME, OggEnc, and so on) will run with elevated rights too! That's because you can only elevate a process, but once the process has been elevated, it cannot de-elevate itself or create non-elevated child processes (at least I'm not aware of a method). And running the audio tools with elevated rights certainly is NOT a good idea, when processing a lot files that might originate from an "unknown" source...

(If however you get this warning although your are certainly NOT launching LameXP with elevated rights, e.g. "Run as administrator", please let me know. I don't have a Vista machine to test)

[EDIT]

Boyumeow, could you please run the attached tool on your system, once with "Run as administartor" and once without ???
