You need to go into the Administration Console - Content Administration - Security tab.  Find the System Administrator role, add your specific user as a member of the role, and remove 'everyone' as a member of the role.

Regards,

Also, Consultantshaz, you might want to make sure that in your Cognos Configuration you have Anonymous set to 'False'.

Cheers!
