UAC Notifications

How do you tell W7 to recognize software so that you do not get a pop-up for the same software over and over? I did have it turned down lowest setting but you lose IE protected mode.

Brand new laptop here with W7 pre-installed and have to admit - despite my fears when attending this forum when I still only had my old xp laptop - I actually have no problems with UAC; like rich said, small price to pay and actually quite reassuring.

Hmmmm!
It gives a pop up about itself, when u consider...................................

A couple of options

1) Home :: Smart UAC Replacement
This one has been slammed by security buffs as coming from a source with a semi shady past. It can be found on all the major trust worthy downloading sites. I tried it for about a week and found the latest version to be perfectly stable and quite useful. At the time of testing, I was running Malware Defender, Threatfire, MSE and Windows 7 Firewall Control Plus. Didn't observe any trickery during that time.

2) Elevated Program Shortcut without UAC Prompt - Create

3) The Application Compatibility Toolkit
Selectively disable UAC for your trusted Vista applications | Microsoft Windows | TechRepublic.com

Download details: Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit

TY,
Now this was the type of answer I was hoping for. I believe #2 is the one for me, I just need to check it out closely before I leap. #1 Looks like software you pay for and buying W7 Ultimate was enough.
UAC triggers on itself, on two of the puters monitoring software I use which increases the boot time considerably, on the online game I play. For something that is suppose to help with web surfing protection, it interferes with non internet surfing functions.
Thanx again for a useful response.

Number 1 is free to the best of my knowledge
