I turned off the nannie control with my partner's help. That stopped some of the annoyance. . . Rick is smart and knows what to do with Vista. If I was on my own, I would have had no clue what to do. I am not "stupid" - I just don'e tahnt to have to have a tech certifcation to use my own damn computer. I ahve had lots of problems . . . .now Flash will not work - even though we have unistalled it and reinstalled it and I have troied to update it umteen times. I wish I was back on XP. BTW - I am on a souped up gaming computer - we have updated all of my drivers . . . 

I live with a MS developer - my own helpdesk right across the room - and we still can't get to run with out problems.
