User Approval Control Question

[Joe727]

Hi - In Local Security there is this entry:

User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in
the Admin Approval Mode.

There are 3 options:

No Prompt

Prompt for Credentials

Prompt for Consent

I selected No Prompt, but am wondering if I should have Prompt for
Credentials selected instead.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Joe

info also available in help & Support:
search UAC

No prompt

Prompt for credentials (this setting requires user name and password input
before an application or task will run as elevated)

Prompt for consent (this is the default setting for administrators only,
this setting is available for administrators only)

IC - not a bad idea to prompt for credentials until I can get Zone Alarm and
SpyBot Installed.

Thanks

How to disable UAC:

select Disable UAC > click Launch, restart your system for the changes to
take effect.

Thanks for the shortcut - I sure wish these Vista newsgroups were being
archived by Google.
