Suggestion for Docs

I humbly suggest that the "Executing Nmap on Windows" section of your web
site (http://nmap.org/book/inst-windows.html#inst-win-exec ) include the
following information: If on Windows 7, you must right-click the Zenmap
icon, and select "Run as Administrator" even if you are logged on as an
administrator. Similarly, to run Nmap on Windows 7, you must open the
command prompt with administrator privileges. While there are multiple ways
to do this, one way is to right-click the command prompt shortcut, and
select "Run as Administrator." Even if you already are logged in as an
administrator, failing to follow these instructions will result in an error
that Nmap cannot identify the Ethernet interface.
