| Do this instead of disabling UAC I can't live with the UAC prompts, so I had it turned off. But I just came across this tweak to keep UAC active while turning the prompts off. Security Centre still reports that UAC is turned off, but it seems to be working as you can see that IE7 runs in Protected Mode. http://www.tweakvista.eu/show_tweak.php?tweak=84 ss.      |

| Re: Do this instead of disabling UAC Why not just turn off the firewall, enable the administrator account, remove all account passwords and start up as many p2p programs as your memory allows.

I'm not. If you search this NG you'll find that many people disable UAC, and this is a way to have UAC enabled but without the prompts.
