I was wrong - my Vista sp1 also gives me UAC warnings when I start the
VPN client.

I wish I could find a way to elevate priveleges on an
application-by-application basis to eliminate the prompt, but the best
I could do is described in the following web site:

_v.html

I'll paste in the paragraph of instructions that made the prompt go
away for me:

"Click Start and Control Panel. Switch to Classic View (if you haven't
already) and click on the Administration Tools icon. In the list that
opens click on Local Security Policy, and in the next window, Local
Policies (a tiny bit redundant, but all UIs can't be perfect -- If UAC
is running you'll get a UAC pop-up somewhere in here). In the Local
Policies list click Security Options, and scroll down to "User Account
Control: Behavior" (the full title of the policy is "User Account
Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin
Approval Mode" but the window barely opens that far). Double-click the
title and in the dialog box change its setting from "Prompt for
Consent" to "Elevate without prompting." Click OK and the urge to tear
your hair and scream at your PC will be greatly diminished in the
future."
