    Did you try going to My Computer>Local Disk (C:)>Windows>Fonts. Then drag the font file into that, you shouldn't need administrative powers.

    To make yourself a computer administrator log onto whoever on your pc is click Start>User Acounts( Windows Xp)> Click back untill you cant click it anymore>Click on your acount name>Change acount type>Computer Administrator. Try that let me know if it works.

    Google NT offline passoword cracker. Burn it to a disk and change the admin password!!!

    But then you have to deal with the DAD, whipping your behind for messing with his machine for fonts. Or hey ask him to install some fonts for you...
