I tried the "Suppress and skip" thing and it is OK I've only had it lil' box pop up once to ask for permission...I can live with that.
The TweakGuides is excellent.

I'm still a non-believer I'm afraid..
I hear ya, I take some of what is in it with a grain of salt and I used to have the same issue with Internet Privacy Keeper (I love that program) before sp1 but sence the update I hardly ever get UAC to pop up now.Don't get me wrong I think the Tweakguide is a brilliant read, great to use as a reference guide but I don't totally agree with everything that this guy has written in there. Take yourself.. You like to run your rig a certain way and have definately the experience not to bugger it up. Now just because you've read the tweakguide I'm sure it's not going to be a life changing event for you.. But still you'll take from the guide what you need and ignore the rest (unless it's important and needs attention). With me I have certain start-up programs that the UAC/Defender hates and I have to go through this ritual of clicking lots of boxes to get them to run when the UAC is turned on... Laziness...? Definately! Will it turn my rig into something useless if I don't keep the UAC on.. I doubt it
The UAC really is designed for network enviroments or where you've got lots of 'rugrats' running around, so for me it'll stay turned off for now, but thats me, my decision and as for someone else the decision could be completely different...

Just take the soapbox from underneath me
Now, I just have to get Vista to boot again.

I think we are just going to have to agree to disagree...
