I just wish Microsoft did not feel like it has to hold your hand for every little thing, even with an advanced OS like Server 2008. It would be great if they brought back Microsoft Bob for children, new computer users and those with serious brain injuries, and leave all this annoying fluff out of the OSs that more experienced and/or not-completely-stupid people use.

This is all fine information, really basic stuff. What I want to know is how to get rid of that annoying Windows Defender warning at system startup, and the red shield with the X in my system tray telling me I have Security Alerts. I use NOD32 wich does not have a firewall, I use windows firewall. I do not want to disable Windows Defender, I want Windows Defender to accept that I do not want to use UAC, ignore that setting and stop warning me about it. Thanks.

Isn’t there a way to keep the other Security Center notifications, EXCEPT for UAC? In XP, we could customize which one(s) we wanted to be notified about. I’ll bet there’s some Registry tweak to do this.
