Please disable UAC before installing this product.  To do so ...


Why disable UAC?
UAC, as stated by Microsoft, is a measure designed to annoy users, as well as applications.  As such, our software cannot operate under these conditions.  Contrary to popular belief, UAC does not protect users or prevent any security threats.
