We leave it on on clients and servers. We do have a few individual engineers who disable it on their servers. I could understand it if it was on specific server/application combinations but they want it off on all their systems.

It's probably not related to turning off UAC but evidently right clicking and choosing 'run as administrator' or clicking on the UAC prompt is challenging.
