Renaming exacutable file makes the file require admin permission to run

Just to be clear I do not mean renaming a file requires admin permission! So I have just created a program for managing virtual floppy disks (injecting, extracting, and deleting files form a virtual floppy), but the output file name is not correct so I renamed it to "vdisk.exe". When I try to run the file it says it requires admin permission to run, but with any other file name it runs just fine and does not require admin permission. I sent the program to a friend and it works just fine for him so it just appears to be a problem on my computer. If nobody knows whats going on I think I might just re-install Windows because I have been having problems with other things too. Oh and by the way I am using a Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit if anyone wants to know. Here is a video of it if anyone is interested http://youtu.be/K7tmkeCY6jc
