I am typing with my keyboard on my belly. That's right.

I am 7 (+/- 14) days away from my due date ...

Can anyone tell me how to fix Vista so it doesn't keep asking me if I meant to do something... like paste or start a program?

Vista asks you if you really wanna paste? Wow.

As for the other stuff, no. Well, very little anyhow. They built the program to give you security - whether you want it or not. In the end all it is is a second click on 'yes-ness' annoying, but not catastrophic. You will get used to the obseqiousness (sp) soon enough.

Which is ironic because eventually people will simply do that extra click by rote and any security advantage will be lost.

Let's hear it for Windows...not knowing when to leave well the fuck alone for goin on ten years now...

It asks me if I want to allow this program to have access to my clipboard, where the copied text is located.

I'll deal if I hafta.

Trust me, before you know it, that extra click will be like workin' a set of castannettes. You'll barely notice. Just try and put out of your mind that Microsoft thinks you're an imbecile.

It's just that it grinds my entire computer to ahalt to ask me

I 'm already not reading the box and just clicking my life away

Yup. That's what most reviewers predicted would happen. People would just see it as one more gateway click to get what they wanted and ignore what the box actually said.

And yeah, it has to stop your computer to ask you that very important question - because you see otherwise you wouldn't be paying attention...*gags*

See the reply below.

in your control panel i believe it's called windows defender, you have to disable it, it will ask if you want to do that, and then you have to reboot.

Awesome, I will do that
