Vince, I am not quite sure what you meant when you said "As an admin user UAC". If you are running Windows 7 (and I tend to believe that you are from previous postings but I could be wrong) there are no "true" "Administrative" users unless you "dug up", "revived", and unhid the true "Administrator" account. First user created on a Windows 7 machine is only a pseudo-administrator (i.e., will be bugged by UAC unless UAC is turned off), and programs that were not launched "elevated" are not administrative at all, and have no "access" to administrative things. - Dan
