oracle tns 01190,TNS-01190: The user is not authorized to execute the requested listener com

Hello All,

I just re-installed oracle forms10g and oracle 10g rel 2 on windows vista. The first time i installed both software, i swithched d pc off without turning off the listener on my laptop. When i rebooted, i found that i could not startup both forms 10g and oracle 10g database let alone loggin in. So i re-installed both prodcts. Every time i try to turn off the listener i get the error TNS-01190: The user is not authorized to execute the requested listener com. I have tried several ways to turn this off, but all effort has failed. After reading several literature on this issue, I learnt that if you change the password then any user who knows the password should be able to turn off the listener. But I still get thesame error on trying to add a password. Please can anyone help me by telling me how i can deduce the oracle user that has the administrative right to perform this task.

Pls forgive me for the long text. Thanks again. Pls note I am not an expert so pls be explicit in your explanations.

cheers
