Solved several Problems ... User Account Control

Hey Guys,
I was able to solve several problems that I have figured out so far…
Turning off UAC solved all of my Tivo problems and also solved Quicken
saving my info on a second hard drive. I’m hoping this may solve other
problems… well see, this is all I have time for right now.
Hopefully it will help some of you.

Turn off UAC .... the 4 color shield on your icons….(if the program is
running under admin)
That shield represents that the program, Control Panel item, or setting is
under the control of User Account Control, or UAC for short.
I get the red shield telling me I’m not using recommended setting… but my
stuff works.

Re: Solved several Problems ... User Account Control

Can you possibly describe what kind of problems you had with LUA on and are
solved now.
Just post it here and I'll follow up on these...
