See this thread:

Are you putting the data in the Program Files directory? That's a big no-no, and

probably the source of your trouble. Put any data off of Documents and Settings, in

either All Users or a specific user.

When run as administrator, it reads/writes to the copy off of Program Files, because

Administrator has the rights. When run as an unprivileged user, from what I

understand it copies the database into a directory where the user has rights

(probably under Documents and Settings somewhere).
