User Account Blues
I know that many people will disagree, but it is my computer and I have
turned off User Account Control. I have my reasons. BUT, now I get a popup telling me I just must turn it back on and that popup delays my boot up. Is there a way to convince Vista that I paid for that software and ought to be able to not suffer the constant reminder that I'm not going along with something that is unnecessary for me in this application? Thank you. SLM

User Account Blues
When you turn off UAC you also turn off IE's protected mode
What if you change it so that UAC will silently elevate? and what things are you doing that you get the UAC prompt. I am as we speak on a Vista machine that has not had a UAC prompt in about a month now. Paul Smith wrote: "SL Mourning" wrote in message ...
