      OMFG that is overkill... This is much easier.

      Go to the "Control Panel", doubleclick the "User Accounts" and click on "Turn User Account Control on or off".

              just google tweakUAC - keeps your security for you but remains sensible without all the prompts all the time, it gives you 3 basic options, dead easy to use.
