In one of my apps I now install the executable with a name of "update.exe" just so that it can set the registry on first run even if Vista uac is on. Then it changes its name to a more reasonable one just before quitting the first run.

Wow.  That's one of the scariest things I've read in a long time.

Was there anyone at the meetings which led to this decision who was over the age of six?
