| US Robotics Modem and Windows Vista I'm using a USR 56K modem. When I boot up my system, I'm asked three times to grant permission for the upgraded driver to run. So each time, I grant permission. When my daughter logs on with her user account she gets the same prompts. The problem comes when the User Account Control asks for permission to run the R3 Interface. No matter how I set the parental controls, it insists on an administrator password to continue. This is a huge inconvenience as she cannot use the internet if I'm not home or otherwise unavailable to enter my password--which I'm certainly not going to share. Perhaps this is a remedial fix that I just cannot overcome. I've resigned myself to having to give the modem permission to load three times everytime I start my computer, but I'd like to know how to allow my daughter to use the internet when I'm not standing there. Anyone?? Thanks |

| Re: US Robotics Modem and Windows Vista Yes. This is only began happening after I DID get the updated driver.
