So i was trying to watch a video i think, and then firefox asked me for UAC, so i accepted, now whenever i load up firefox i have to UAC it. I turned off the UAC which i didnt want to do, and tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it still comes up with the security sheild over the firefox icon. Is there a way to reset the security on the firefox.exe?

Leave UAC turned off it makes vista a billion times better and as long as your careful you will be alright.

I hated the fact that you had to click 5 times to delete a file amongst a thousand other reasons.

The shield basically says it runs under administrator priviledges, have a look on its properties fro a run as administrator check box.
