[DUG] D2007 under VIsta

[Myles Penlington]

Perhaps if you install it under program files the issue may go away. 

You can perhaps also check the properties on the file to see if vista
has put a block etc on it, which you may be able to remove.

 

Failing that, get a code signing certificate. Or at least create your
own self signed certificate and install it as a trusted certificate (not
sure how to achieve that last part yet). The best deal on these at the
moment is via the tucows website (need to search the site to find the
entry). US $99 for 1 year.

No that doesn't work either - it just opens the same UAC dialog asking
if I want to run it.   The dialog offers the choice "I have run this
program before and I trust it" but it obviously does not remember any
past answers to this.

 

I suspect its because the program has the word "Start" as part of the
name - its just a program to check versions and start a menu though.  Is
this the Vista apprach to security?  if a program is suspicious (I
understand anything with the words Setup Install and other words in the
name count as this) automically get a UAC prompt....

 

I don't mind changing the name of the program if thats easier!  Anyone
got information on what program names Vista cares about?
