1) DON'T SHOUT. Using all capitals is considered shouting on the internet, and rude (using all lower case is considered childish). Use proper capitalisation if you want to be taken seriously.
2) Changed question title to meaningful description. Please do not use "PLS HELP ME GETTING ERROR" or similar as it does not tell potential answerers what your problem is - that wastes time if they know nothing about WMI. If you use a more descriptive title, you will get better focussed responses.

This is not a good question - we cannot work out from that little what you are trying to do.
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind.

So when did the error occured ? While searching on google or while logging into GMail?

This seems like a simple permissions issue to me... Are you using WMI to query a remote computer? or is this the local computer? If it is a remote computer, you will have to query the remote terminal using a domain admin, and the computer must exist on the domain. If this is a local WMI query, simply running the application as administrator will rid you of this error. Running Visual Studio as Administrator will rid you of the error while actively developing the program. You could also use impersonation or have the user specify login credentials at runtime. Posting the portion of code that is throwing the error would be helpful as well.

yes sir i am using WMI to access the remote computer information like...IPaddress,osversion ,username

Okay. So you are using WMI to access a remote computer. So as a developer what does that tell you? Like maybe you do not have access to the remote machine? Follow John Bartels suggests and you may actually see differences.
