    Hello...
    Is it normal for geswall pro to have "disable geswall policy" (right click system tray icon)and "application wizard" (in right click explorer context menu )greyed out and effectively disabled ,unless vista UAC is turned off? .Ive noticed when UAC is disabled they are not greyed out ,however when UAC is enabled they are.Is this by design ?

    In XP Pro when you run limited user it is the same (greyed out)

    My number one gripe about Geswall ... not 100% compatible with VISTA. Why should I have to disable UAC to disable (and install) a sec app?

    Yes it has it's quirks on Vista, like those mentioned, but other than that it runs fine - at least free 2.7.1 with Firefox does.

    BTW, didn't try it myself, but looks like you can be in trouble after installing GW in Vista with SRP implemented..
