Default User Account Control Issues

Make sure the User Account Controls are turned on.

I am trying to configure User Account Control. I would like it not to
flash
that GUI warning "User Account Control stops unauthorized changes to your
computer. If you started this action:....when running things from the
command line like disk check.

I can avoid this message if I go into Control Panels and use Local
Policies
and Security Options to turn of the messages. However, when I reboot, I
get
Windows Security Center warnings that User Account Control has been turned
off.

I also cannot right click on these Windows tools and run them as an
admistrator if I try to right click and properties and Compatibility (all
the
settings are grayed out).

Any way to do this do diable the GUI button that appears and not get the
Windows Security Center warnings? What security risks occur if you ignore
the Windows Security Center warnings? Is this a bug?

WARNING! WARNING! ID10T error! Seriously, UAC is worthless and
annoying, why would anyone want to leave it on, it's much less annoying
to have the security center bug you. But many of us would like a way to
remove this annoyance too and you spent the time to post that answer?

You should toss the computer out of the window of a ten story building.
You jump out too, follow the computer closely and you UAC head-first
into the pavement. That will turn UAC off for you, permanently.

Fortunately you provided no context for anyone to have any idea of what you
are saying.

Fortunately indeed! LOL (that's "laughs out loud" for the
abbreviationally challenged). D

....since you seem to have no sense of humor - I'm sure you will want to
have the last word (so go ahead).
