When viewing the Quest MessageStats Reports webpage | File | Administrative Options and clicking on the Settings button you receive the error message
"Permissions Denied You must be a member of the administrators group."
You may also get an "Access Denied" error when you try to create a subscription
STEP 1 :
Confirm the account you are running the reports as is a member of the local Administrators and MessageStats Admin groups.
STEP 2 :
Disable UAC in windows registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
If you do not have such a Registry key, then just create it.
