Changing the Icon of the UAC prompt

[leeaids]

Hi,

When you run your app in vista (already has the shield) the UAC pops-
up a prompt asking you to continue or cancel, can you change the icon
in that prompt with the icon of your app?

Thanks
Ryan

The prompt should display your app's icon next to the information about
it automatically.

The icon comes a few different places depending on what kind of UAC prompt
it is (command-line, COM, MSI). Probably you're talking about the first
one. That will be the first icon in your file by resource ID.
