Just so you know, you show your previews as having the "HasLUAShield" string value included, but the reg file you supply does not include it.
Personally, I prefer it with the "HasLUAShield" because it comes across as an important menu option and you should realize what you're doing before you actually click it. That's just my opinion, but its up to you if you want to change the reg file to include it.

^^ Thanks for the heads up. Now the reg file contains the "HasLUAShield" string.

I ran the registry file on my vista 32 bit. When i was finished with it i used the other reg file to remove it. After the process was complete, the 'Take ownership' option still remained. Can anyone please help me.

^^ Please download the file again and run the new Uninstall Registry file. It'll fix the problem.
