everything was nice since i've been using windows vista.
but recently, after my firefox is crashed for few times (close the
program while it is not responding)
when i run firefox again, windows prompt me for running the software as
administrator or whatever.
ever since then, everytime i run firefox i need to confirm the
permission.
(before this windows never asks for my permission for running firefox,
even my UAC is turned on all the time)
same problem applies to classic version of flashget.
can anyone tell me how to solve the problem?
is it turning off the UAC the only way to deal with it?

Turning off UAC would be a bad idea since it could leave your system
vulnerable. I would uninstall and reinstall Firefox to see if that repairs
the problem.
