    Hello all. I've read through all the sections on this forum that deal with this problem and I cannot resolve it. I've also read through the tutorials posted by Brink on setting UAC levels via the Local Security Policy and still no dice.

That's when I get the infamous "Destination folder access denied" nonsense. The files are in my user account folder that is on the desktop.

In case you missed it Jane, Eric and the Microsoft Update team have provided some great blog posts about how IE8 is offered to users via Automatic Updates and Windows …
