Thanks to the "Run as administrator" tip I am running Remote Assistant successfully on my Windows 7 laptop.

One thing I did notice, which may or may not be helpful, or general was: if I inserted an SD card into the SD slot on the computer and used the "ready boost" facility to improve computer performance then Remote Assistant would no longer find and operate the camera. When I remove the ready boost functionality the camera re-appeared.

I got it to work by checking the "Run this program as an administrator" box in the properties of the PENTAX REMOTE Assistant shortcut under the Compatibility tab.
I was going to delete this post, but I figured that others might have run into the same issue.
