Hi,
I do agree that the UAC dialog prompt can get pretty annoying at times. 
With the Vista Ultament version you are allowed to customize User 
Account Control setting/security which allows you to have full control 
over what it blocks and lets through the security screen. Why Microsoft 
does not have this feature in Vista Home Basic and Vista Home Premium I 
don't know but it is on my suggestion list for Windows 7. One I hope 
Microsoft has the good sense to implament.
As for User Account Control in general it is really something Windows 
users are really going to have to get use to sooner or later. This type 
of security and account control has been present on Linux for a number 
of years and has improved system security and safety because of it. Now, 
that Microsoft has woken up to and employed the same style of security 
on Windows new Vista users are screaming to take it off, or turn it off 
putting their Vista system at the same kind of security risks that were 
present under XP.
Really what I have found in my home business is that most Windows users 
have been doing things the wrong way for years. Instead of neatly 
putting all their documents, downloads, etc in their local directory I 
have seen there are a majority of users that just dump pictures, 
documents, whatever in their c: drive and expect Vista to put up with 
their bad habbits. If it was Linux instead of XP it would have been 
screaming at them to store in
/home/user.
it is not just end users with bad hhabbits. Their has been a majority of 
programmers that save settings, games, etc to the
c:\Program Files\Program X
directory instead of storing that information in the users App Data 
directory. As a result there is lots of programs being updated to work 
correctly with Vista all thanks to years of bad habbits.
