    Vista’s UAC can be annoying, and although I’ve shared with you how to make it less annoying, Norton (Symantec) has come up with a replacement UAC that is makes it much better!

    With one BIG feature - “Don’t ask me again”  I think I’m in love!  There are several programs I run during the course of the day that the UAC prompts me.  I run them every day I don’t need to be prompted to open the command prompt, or and administrative mmc window!  Also, it’s fast!  Much faster than the default Windows UAC.

    Thanks to Norton UAC Replacement, I’m running UAC-less on the daily apps that I use, but still have the protection from of UAC for everything else!  Although it is in Beta, Norton UAC Replacement is solid, and I have had no issues so far - I’ve been running it for about two weeks now.
