That's why we keep recommending not to install MeGUI there, over and over ... or you would have to disable the UAC, which is a security risk.
Fortunately, I'm in a UAC free zone (still running XP).

How do people put up with the crap? I plugged a USB hard drive into my ex's laptop the other day, to copy some stuff to the laptop drive, and UAC had to bother me to ask permission to access it. More than once, I think.
