| | How do I hide the security center shield - wanring me I turned off UAC. I turned off UAC so I could work without being harrassed every 2 minutes. However i get the little shield warning in the bottom right about UAC being turned off. I'd like to be warned about other security issues but I'll never notice the shield unless there is a way to turn the notification off for UAC. I may not be an expert on Vista yet but I would consider myself way above average for Windows so I don't ever want to turn UAC on again. Thanks |

| | Re: How do I hide the security center shield - wanring me I turned off UAC. True. You can tell it to change the way it notifies you by clicking on the shield and selecting "change the way windows notifies me", but that will prevent all those security messages from appearing. -- /* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Robert Firth * * Windows Vista x86 RTM * * http://www.WinVistaInfo.org * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * */ "Kerry Brown" <kerry@kdbNOSPAMsys-tems.c*a*m> wrote in message news:%234GUhOLSHHA.3592@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >I don't know of a way to just disable it for one item only. > > -- > Kerry Brown > Microsoft MVP - Shell/User > http://www.vistahelp.ca > > > "boe" <boe_d@nospam.hotmail.com> wrote in message > news:%23wLT59KSHHA.4188@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >> Apparently not much.
