One of my friends is having problems with vista and his wireless adapter card. Everytime he boots into vista he has to give permission for WG111V2.exe to run. This is a program associated with his usb wireless adapter. Its obviously something to do with UAC, so is there a way to stop this prompt without having to disable UAC? Cheers.

 

I agree with what the guys said here. I had the same issue with some usb drive and I needed to make sure that its always being run as an administrator.

 

Tried all the above but no luck. Turning off UAC does stop it tho.

 

UAC is a tool of the devil. It's put there to prevent the average schmuck who can't use a PC for a week without it being infested with spyware, malware, trojans and God knows what else from moaning at Microsoft for all the evil it creates.

Provided your mate is not a moron, turn UAC off - all it will do is piss him off in the long run anyway.

I know that probably goes against every piece of advice a security admin should give, but I have NEVER had any spyware on my machine, or a virus, or a trojan - or anything else unwanted. Provided you don't spend all day looking at pr0n, download something like 'Micr0$0ft office 2k7 - Crackzed by hax0rz' from Krapzaa, or click 'no' or the 'X' on pop-ups instead of killing them from the taskbar, and provided you are patched and running behind a hardware firewall - the hype about Internet security is ridiculously overblown.
