    Ask the administrator of the network... unless this is a standalone machine? Are you logged in as administrator?

    check the local group policy.


    any setting you set under gpedit apply globally whether or not you are logged in as administrator

    you can prevent writing to the registry with gpedit.msc....we do it with machines we ship to our stores.

    This is also a trick used by viruses/spyware to prevent you installing antivirus or anti spyware. Hijack this should run and may give you an idea of what you are up against.
