"The file "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\World of Warcraft\World of Warcraft.lnk.Temporary" could not be created. If this problem persists, you may be able to solve it by uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. If you are unable to correct this problem, please contact Blizzard Technical Support.

It's a known issue in Vista and there are explanations on the WoW forums about it. As far as I can remember it can be solved by running the patch with right click > run as administrator. (And agreeing to the UAC message if you have it enabled)

I'm pretty sure you set the AA level in the video options. It is built into the res settings so you set say 1280x1024 2xAA, 1280x1024 4xAA, 1280x1024 8xAA etc.
