I think I've disabled this three times already. However, after a little
time, I get the stupid UAC popup every time I try to do something. The
latest is after Vista downloaded and installed updates than rebooted. Is
there a way to kill this thing completely?

Thanks,
Brett
 
How did you disabled it?
The standard procedure is to enter system configuration (start -> Run ->
msconfig), go to 'tools' and launch 'Disable UAC'.
I've done it a month ago, never seen it again. You possibly have to do that
for every account though...
 
The details for disabling UAC are available on my website:

I can't say i've had any problems once i had disabled UAC.
