When running in Vista, I continually get messages about programs wanting access to do certain things. User Account Control says that it blocked it until I manually click OK. This is extremely annoying. How do I stop it from happening so much?

This is a challenge posting by CNChallenger.

To turn off UAC go to Control Panel > Classic View > User Accounts and click 'Turn User Account Control on/off'.

To prevent the security pop-up in the System Tray, right-click the red shield (or Control Panel > Classic View > Security Center) and click 'Change the way Security Center......' then choose 'Don't notify me and don't........'.
