You are quite correct - I certainly did not mean you - there's like a zillion departments and such there and I just meant the generic brain trust that thought that nutty thing up in the first place. Ever since the "Right Sizing" craziness of the early 90's, titles got really really bonkers, so I just try to stay generic on that.
Yes, the dev team - I hope you did not take my comments to be any swipe at you. They certainly were not meant as such.
UAC is quite silly in its birth and existence, and whoever it was that did it should be sent to a small island with little provisions and nothing to do all day but to have to decide whether or not to let innocuous programs run or not. I mean no mine sweeper, no solitaire - nothing - well maybe some random blue screens or long message box codes that have to be manually written down because there is no copy command for message boxes, and then after they try to look up the messages there will only be a message asking if that was helpful. Yeah!
