Be aware though of the following:
1. You'll be running something to the effect of Windows XP.
2. protected browsing will be automatically turned off and can't be turned
on, even if the option is available. Protected browsing separates IE from
the Windows shell, and also prevents downloading malicious content by
approving your request first.
This is a warning only; not to discourage you from turning off UAC.

Thanks, Chris. Just as I thought. I may have to do the same as Jill and
turn it off completely, as it's rather annoying to be constantly asked
about whether you want something to run or not. It seems like a bit of an
oversight on Microsoft's part that you can't exclude trusted applications
from its clutches.

You can't do this. Windows 7 will allow you to refine it in some way, but
not on an application-specific level. You can, however, adjust it so that
it won't bother you with Windows-based programs but will with third-party
ones. This is the default setting.

Subject: [access-uk] User Account Control Irritations
Hello,
On my Vista laptop I have user account control activated, and while I
don't really want to turn it off permanently, I would like to be able to
refine it so that I can allow some programs, such as Juice and Winamp,
to go through automatically without asking me for permission every time
I want to run either of them.
I have looked in Control Panel but it seems that the only option is to
have UAC on or off and that it isn't configurable. Can anyone confirm
whether this is actually the case, or have I just missed something?
Thanks,
Caroline.
