I have UAC switched off as I found it a pain personally - I have never had any malware and I am not a saint when surfing but I don't do p2p or search for/use warez or ever open email attachments from an unknown source. I also run as admin for the same reason as not using UAC - I like to be in control of what I do and see on my computer. Have run as admin for many years without problems. I do image my system regularly but have never needed to restore due to malware but if you do lower your protection I think imaging is essential.
Just my experiences.
