I just ran accros another nice free program that will also help quiet or turn off the UAC and the annoying confirmations – called Wincleaner UAC Switch. Just google it and try it out.

Love this hack. easy to do but the top result when i searched google wasn’t even related to M$. I had to disable this so i could run Americas army. Since the UAC scans each file you open. Imagine the wait you get when trying to open a 3 gig file.
