I have Windows 7. For the past 2 weeks when I go to Firefox on my window the User Account Control comes up and asks "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?"

I say yes. This happens every time I click on to Firefox logo. How can I avoid this fom happening?

Hi zamler, sorry for the unrelated reply.

I'm not sure what causes that...

If you right-click the icon > Properties > Compatibility tab, can you make sure that "Run this program as an administrator" is not checked?
