Oh... My bad... I thought Windows 7 would have that feature, but unfortunately not...
In actuality, there are four settings: Always Notify, Notify me only when programs try to make changes to my computer, Notify me only when programs try to make changes to my computer (do not dim my desktop), Never Notify... Well, the lowest level is not recommended, but the default level is not as annoying as it's used to be when it notifies you when you change anything with the system. At best, you should atleast have it at Notify me only when programs try to make changes to my computer (do not dim my desktop) since you at least protecting yourself from doing something stupid, but at the same time, some malware can mimick a UAC dialog... which isn't good.
This what the UAC Settings should look like:
Don't mind me... I set mine on high since I'm used to it.
