Hi Can anyone help me with recovery of my administrator password?. I have misplaced it and cannot enable my firewall. Is there anything i can do?

When I click on Updater.exe it tells me that an unidentified program wants access to my computer. Since it's unidentified, I don't know if I want it or not, so I've always denied it. But to have this happen about every 20 minutes if very annoying. How can I find out what the program is and/or to stop the updater from flashing so often? Thanks -- ldl

Unlike a lot of people I actually don't mind the UAC running in the background. BUT... When I boot up my machine I get UAC prompting me to allow Explorer to run and the controls for my graphics card.
