is it possible to run a program without seeing the "Are you sure to execute...?" prompt?

You mean bypassing the UAC (user account control) implemented since Vista?
That can be done by using the task scheduler as a workaround. I can post a more detailed description, if I understood you right.
AHK won't help AFAIK. There would be not much security, if bypass UAC would be so easy.

How does the task scheduler workaround work?

An ahk workaround maybe the following, but it's not a good solution:
#Persistent
SetTimer, cc
cc:
IfWinExist, ahk_class #32770
ControlClick, Button1, ahk_class #32770
return

using task scheduler to run program is more troublesome than clicking YES in the UAC message box...
also, if u are talking about someone else computer, u wont have access to the task scheduler anyways, so that doesnt work |

...if u are blindly going to approve any apps running, might as well disable UAC |

so my previous one is the only possible solution?
I think there is more. For example, firefox can run an external program when you download a file and you don't get any message from the UAC.
Anyone knows how can firefox do it?

Agreed.

Okay here it comes
- excuse me, if I'm using wrong terms. I'm using a german Win7 so I might not guess the right term, when translating this back to english  :
1. Create a new task (or maybe it's called job?) in the task scheduler. 2. The key trick is to activate the checkbox "run with highest priveleges/rights"(?) (its the next to last checkbox on the first tab). This will bypass UAC 3. Then you just need to specify an action (i.e. a the program you would like to call bypassing UAC). A trigger is NOT needed. 4. To run the desired program, you now use the following command instead of your previous link:
schtasks.exe /run /TN "<name of the task/job just created before>"
It's not a perfect solution since it's very time consuming to implement. I only use this for two or three programs need every day and which I trust (e.g. truecrypt).

the first time to run any programs, UAC will pop up, after u approves it, it will never show up again.
same thing with AHK, if u compile the script, and approves the EXE, it shouldnt show up again |

Can't confirm that. UAC always asks for applications, e.g. try regedit - there's always a popup you've to approve. (using Win7 x64 home premium)
