Try right clicking on the the shortcut to Maxthon or the executable
itself, select Properties, and clear the checkbox "Run as
Administrator". It's on the Compatibilities tab.
No guarantees, however...

Many thanks for both replies. Just to clarify , Maxthon is the browser I use
, and when it was first installed , there was no prompt in either account.
I was ' poking around ' and did 'something ' unrelated to it specifically ,
and the next time I tried to start it , I received the prompt in my limited
account. It's the only program on my computer that it happened to. Clearing
the Run as Administrator box has removed the prompt , although it still
shows an Administrator icon on the taskbar shortcut. ( Maybe that will
disappear when I reboot..??)
Thanks again for the help...appreciated !
