Just installed Windows Vista into my SBS2003 domain. Now, everytime I boot
Vista up I get this message: setup.exe is requesting your permission. I'm
pretty sure it's SBS2003 trying to install some client executable but don't
know what. How do I resolve this? My SBS2003 domain does not use exchange,
sharepoint. It is a standard Small Business 2003 server and the O/S came
with my Dell PowerEdge.

Make "yourself" (the domain 'you') a local admin on the vista PC, then
logon. You should not see that message. You should then be able to
demote yourself after that - and it should run normally from now on.
