Every time I try to open Firefox, my User Account Control asks if I want to allow Firefox to make changes to my computer.
Every time I try to open Firefox, my User Account Control asks if I want to allow Firefox to make changes to my computer. It never did this before until my brother messed while trying to download something for a printer. I uninstalled, then reinstalled it, hoping it would fix this, but it didn't. How do I fix this?

Maybe it's just downloading an update? See Find what version of Firefox you are using (The latest version is 3.6.3)
Is your Windows account an administrator account?
I have the same problem. Version 3.5.9 . Let me try upgrading
Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator. Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties". In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected. You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.
If you have Windows-7: Home Basic and Home Premium this works.
1. Create a new text file
2. Copy the text below into it.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin"=dword:00000000
3. Save as, e.g. DisableUACadmin.reg The reg extension is recognized by the registry editor.
4. Double-click your file and accept everything.Then do PART II below.
If you have Windows-7: Professional (Business), Enterprise and Ultimate Editions this works.
1. From the START MENU open the Control Panel and click on the Administrative Tools icon.
2. Double click on Local Security Policy to open it.
3. Browse down to Local Policies and then down to Security Options
4. In the list find: “User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval
Mode” and double-click on it.
5. Using the dropdown window change the setting to “Elevate without prompting”.
6. Close out all your windows and do PART II below
PART II
For all versions of Windows-7, now you can right-click the FireFox icon and select properties. Click on the
Compatibility tab and select "Run this program as an Administrator".
No more UAC for Firefox.
