If you have Ultimate you can enable the true Administrator
account (same as in XP). This will eliminate all UAC popups
without disabling UAC and the issues that can cause. To do
this goto Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer
Management>Local Users and Groups>Users, then in the right
pane, right click Administrators>Properties and enable the
account. Then set the password. This will give you full access
to the OS, and reduce security, but you obviously don't care
about that.
