Very good tool. It works like a charm. It should be a standard feature in Vista.

FAQ: The meta information contains file name and file hashes for the EXE that caused the prompt and the EXE that is to be the recipient of the elevated privileges. In addition, the meta information contains file name and file hashes for DLLs that were active in either of the two EXEs, response information (what option did the user choose, how quickly, and did they choose "do not ask me again"), and date/time info.

At least they do seem to be planing it securely! hope its a very strong hash still. (eg. md5 can be faked)

Makes UAC withstandable. With this program I will leave the UAC protection activated.

Good job Norton! This looks like a keeper.

so much better and less annoying compared to the usual windows vista user account control program
user account control is always asking about CCleaner with this installed it doesn't ask anymore because i set the program to trusted

This is a great program, its made things a lot easier, if you trust aprogram you're able to select not to prompt you again to ask for permission and you can do many other things
if user account control is annoying you, yet you still want UAC protection, i highly advice the installation of this

this is a great product from Symantec, highly recommended, and its quite stable too.
