Hi,

1. Browse to the appropriate Setup.exe or Install.exe program
2. Right click on the setup program and select "Run As..."
3. Uncheck the checkbox "Protect my computer and data from unauthorized
program activity....".

It forces the program to be run with restricted credentials. That option
is part of the NTFS file system which you're using. The more technical
explanation would be as follows:

"When you launch a program in Windows XP Professional with the graphical
RunAs utility, selecting "Protect my computer and data from unauthorized
program activity" runs the program with a restricted token that contains
the S-5-12 SID." - MS Technet

Hope this helps ...... :)

- - Since installing SP2 I get the annoying Run As popup that says:
- - Protect My Computer From Unauthorized Program Activity
- - it has a couple of check box options and my Norton AV won't run anymore
- - The error message says:
- - This file does not have a program associated with it for performing
this
- - action.
- - Create an association in the Folder Options Control panel.
- -
- - Any ideas as to how to get rid of this pop up. So far all my programs
- - (except norton) run fine, I just have to click the run as popup twice.
- -
- - TIA
