Admin Profile over riding report parameters when viewing report

How do I get the hosted report to Ignore the fact our profiles are admins and view the report with the Roles filtered pre-applied?
Whether you are an admin should not make a difference to report filters unless what you are talking about is using security roles to apply the filters. Then it is normal that admins do not get role restrictions applied.
So if you are talking about security roles you have 2 possible work arounds:
1) Use the filters pane to manually filter the data you want to see
2) Get a second windows account created and set that up with admin rights and remove your normal user from the admin role. This will give you extra security since you will not always be running as an admin and will let your normal account have security role filters applied to it.
