How can I disable the User Account Control (UAC)
on Windows Vista Computer?

User Account Control (UAC) is the new feature that was introduced in Windows Vista to reduce the potential risk of security breeches in the system.
 
With UAC enabled, Windows Vista will run most applications with standard user permissions even if the user is an administrator. If a user wishes to run a program that requires administrator permissions, they must give consent through a User Account Control prompt.
