You *could* disable that prompt - but it's one of the security features implemented to make it harder for programs to make unwanted changes to your system so I'd leave it be and just plan any changes that cause it to occur outside of your play schedule.

You don't have to disable it completely. Changing it to the 2nd lowest setting: "Notify me only when apps try to make changes to my computer (do not dim my desktop)" makes it stop crashing EQ. I went this route cause switching to full screen and back crashes me pretty frequently.
