uac and user settings

[Guest]

Hi, I have been googling this for awhile but can't find the answer.
I have installed vista business on my laptop, I am a network administrator
and I turned UAC on. Now my personal settings isn't saved when I log on, what
do I need to do to make my personal settings such as
c:\Users\<user>\Favorites beeing saved or my background image or what kind of
icons I want on the desktop everythime and not deleted everytime I log off?

thanks

It might be a security program blocking the Registry changes it needs to
make. A few, but not all, of the programs now doing this are:
Ad-aware's Ad-Watch
IBM Access Connections
McAfee VirusScan and/or Antispyware
Norton AV
Spyware Blaster
Spybot> Tools> IE Tweaks
Spybot- Teatimer
Spysweeper
Spyware Doctor
Windows Defender
Zone Alarm (free) 6.5 Reported to be fixed in later versions.

In the case of Zone Alarm 6.5 or Norton 2007 it actually has to be
uninstalled. Make sure the Windows Firewall is turned on until you
reinstall Zone Alarm.

Boot into Safe Mode with Networking and try the change.

I found the problem, I was part of domain guests, so my profile was always
temporary and got deleted averytime I logged out.
