on my win7, I run compmgmt.msc and drill to a private queue
folder ... when I click "Queue messages" or "Journal messages",
I either see the messages, or "There are no items to show in this view".

BUT, on win2008 R2 Enterprise, I run compmgmt.msc and drill to a private queue
folder ... when I click "Queue messages" or "Journal messages",
I see "There are no items to show in this view" which AFAIK
is correct BUT I get this unwanted dialog:

Message Queuing        x  
------------------------  
(X) The list of messages cannot be retrieved.  
    Error:  Access is denied.  
                 [[  OK  ]]  

On both computers, I'm a member of local Administrators.

I'm concerned as a developer because I'm very soon
going to be testing WCF/MSMQ software that works
on my Win7 laptop.

How to I get past this denied access problem?

thnx / g.
