I think it is fine to discuss this subject here as some of the scripters are
under the opinion that they can't script on Vista. Everyone needs to know
you can script on Vista just as easily as you could on XP and people also
need to know the dangers of arbitrarily turning off UAC on their systems.
Thanks,
Rick

No, Jaws works allright with UAC enabled.

From the documentation I read on the UAC, it sounds like most corporate
computers will have UAC enabled and have a method to ensure that users will
not be able to disable UAC. So is JAWS completely incompatible with UAC if
so this is a major stumbling block for using jaws Job access.
This list probably should not discuss this issue, but does anybody know if
there has been a comprehensive discussion of these potential issues?
