Now that I read it for a second time...I think I might know the problem with your Program Files folder. Vista is using the UAC (User Account Control) which only allows people with administrator right to change certain things within certain folders (like systemroot, program files etc).

The thing to do here to use leveledit while it's in your program files folder, is to disable the UAC function. To do this go to:
Control Panel > User Accounts > Enable/Disable Account Management (it's the bottom option) > Uncheck the box and save settings.

Now vista will shut up about certains things. It will no longer pop-up those annoying boxes you get when you try to copy files to certain folders and some more stuff. (Most likely you won't have to start applications as administrator since the restrictions have been removed)


Edit: It would be handy if someone stickied this post for future reference. There are still a lot of people who don't know how to solve things in vista.
