Turning off UAC is like running everything as root on a UNIX/Linux system. A really bad idea. And with the amount of evil stuff out there, you're setting yourself up for having a PC that is owned. It can still happen with UAC enabled, but at least you have some defense.

I actually suspect something is preventing the UAC prompt, which leads me to wonder if his PC is already infected.
