Jailbreaking iOS 5.1.1

If you are having trouble getting the absinthe exe to run on Windows, getting the error “You must run this app as Administrator” then this can be caused by many things but this tip should resolve the problem:

runas /user:Administrator absinthe

(You’ll need to know your local administrator password for this)
