I'm sure I'm not the only person to turn UAC OFF. Like you said nihil it drives you NUTS!
My XP systems never had UAC and somehow we survived, so I don't think the lack of it in Vista is going to...

Don't know if that was aimed at me, but I did turn UAC off thanks.

Yeah, I can see the theory behind it, just on the surface it looks dumb to be asked if you want to do something you just specifically indicated that you did.

I try to strike a balance between secure and irritating. I don't need a message box asking me if I want to open control panel when I just double clicked the control panel icon!

Yes, you don't have to endure UAC - turning it off was about the first thing I did in Vista. I also stopped it giving me balloon messages about less than ideal security settings.
