Short answer, you can't -- UAC is machine specific, not account
specific.

Hi thanks a lot,
but this isnt a reason to say that it is not possible.
Is there no way to say the machine that i need another account for non UAC?
e.g. in the local policies or registry.
I cannot believe that the only administratoraccount without uac is hard
coded in the source of vista?

UAC is either on or off for an entire system, there is no option to
tweak it on a per-user basis.

The next best thing is to turn it off, and run your users as non-admins,
and elevate using the administrator password (runas) when needed.
