Ugly prompted uninstall message of Vista UAC
I had a basic msi project. In install package, I signed setup.exe and *.msi. The problem is when I wanted to unisntall my application on Vista which turned UAC on, UAC prompted a message that "An unidentified program wants to access to your computer". If I clicked "details", it shows
unidentified Publisher
Update
[ProductVersion]
[CompanyName]
Since I alreaday signed setup.exe and *.msi, why did UAC warning about "unidentified Publisher"? And why it shows the unidentified Publisher is "Update", I did not have such file in my package.
Anyone knows what's happened?
Thanks!

Oh Robert, this is like relive for my research. I almost start to sign .MST files 😉 Also found Microsoft KB: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929467/en-us
