| | RE: Turning Off UAC & Little Red Shield To prevent the security pop-up in the System Tray, right-click the red shield (or Control Panel > Classic View > Security Center) and click 'Change the way Security Center......' then choose 'Don't notify me and don't........'. You don’t have to turn UAC off, you can stop the prompt without UAC losing its security strengths, in Vista Home Basic and Vista Home Premium click the Windows Orb (Start), type regedit, press Enter and navigate to registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System and change the value of ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin to 0 (zero) from 2.

| | Re: Turning Off UAC & Little Red Shield Go to the Control Panel > Security Center > In the left pane, click "Change the way Security Center alerts me". You can display the icon only, or to completely remove it, click "Don't notify me and don't display the icon (not recommended)". -- Dustin Harper dharper@xxxxxx http://www.vistarip.com | Vista Resource & Information Page Was this helpful?
