I'd say the IDEA of UAC is good, the execution is VERY flawed. I'm
forced to turn it off and leave it off as it doesn't allow IEPrivacy
Keeper to function and I believe IEPrivacy Keeper to be more important
to my PCs security than UAC.

Very good idea, possibly one that might be accomplished with an add on
of some kind?
