Vista security problem

Hi,

I have an App that updates a text file located in "\Program Files\...". In
Vista, it does not allow me to do that unless I disable UAC. I tried to
write the following manifest file but it's still not working.

<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<asmv3:trustInfo xmlns:asmv3="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
<asmv3:security>
<asmv3:requestedPrivileges>
<asmv3:requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="true" />
</asmv3:requestedPrivileges>
</asmv3:security>
</asmv3:trustInfo>
</assembly>

Is there something wrong with the file? Are there other better alternatives
to do this without disabling UAC?

Thanks,
Glenn
