Windows 7 and UAC, restarting

[tecknotot]

Besides disabling UAC or making the notification bar go down (in Windows 7). Is there a workaround or way to install MBAM so that everytime I restart my PC the UAC doesnt come on? Thanks!

It is due to a minor issue in the program that has already been fixed for version 1.42 which should be released in the next day or so.

Please check for updates to the program in the coming few days and it should correct it for you.

Ron, you could also give him the link to the quick fix I made...

UAC will always ask when something wants to make changes, so you can safely answer "OK". I have Win7 also, and the full version of MalwareBytes, and I don't get that UAC warning when I boot up. I get it on other things (like when installing MBAM updates), but not on booting up. As to how to stop it, I think the only way is to turn off the UAC completely, or you can try turning it down a notch. Go to the Control Panel and click the top link in the "User Account Security" section (it might be called something else, but I think I'm close) and try different settings. Unfortunately, UAC does not have an exceptions list (I wish it did!!) so it will always flag certain things.

@daor79: The UAC issue with Malwarebytes' is a known issue that will be corrected in the next version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. Info on the cause as well as a fix can be found here.
