I think I've narrowed this mysteriousness down to Windows Defender, however, I cannot find a way to keep Windows Defender enabled with the possibility to keep it from messing with the UAC settings. Argh!</P><P>The ONLY thing I've found was that you can disable UAC via msconfig via startup...but that's not what I'm looking for.</P><P>I've gone to the MS website (<A href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/bb629436.aspx">http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/bb629436.aspx</A>) and have asked everyone I know...does anyone in this forum have any tips?Fri, 25 Apr 2008 16:00:38 GMTv.75043111
