A while back I wrote two articles for TechNet Magazine describing a set of tools to work around a number of shortcomings when trying to elevate some types of tasks in Windows Vista and higher with User Account Control enabled.  I have even written a few posts on this blog that covered them.  You can find these articles here: Utility Spotlight: Script Elevation PowerToys for Windows Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.06...
