I believe this is standard behaviour on Windows Vista, it has little to with the way OneCare works.

This is not standard depending on how you organise your application.

The UAC button could launch an administrator-only application that allows/blocks the program automatically without another prompt.

There are ways to structure onecare so this needs not be the case.
