If the default installation folder for WiSP is under C:\Program Files, that's likely your problem. Windows 7 User Account Controls limits certain write activities to sub-folders under the Program Files folder. Try uninstalling it, then re-install but DON'T accept the default installation directory. I set up a Ham Stuff folder in the root directory that I install everything to, and have not run into any problems.
