Well, apparently if you make VB6.exe and Link.exe at always run as
administrator, this will solve some of the problem.

What sucks is that I keep all my projects in their own folder, and Vista
won't allow VB to write settings to the .vbp file. Stupid Vista. Too many
workarounds. :\


I don't know much about Vista yet, but from what I can gather from other posts and just reading about Vista, try turning off UAC. From my understand, with it own, most programs are going to "think" they're running under non-admin accounts....even if you are logged on as an administrator. To me, this is no different than people trying to run VB (or any development programs) under non-admin accounts in earlier versions of Windows.
