I don’t drink that much, just when I am around others who do. I am not anti drinking, but I am a single man and I just don’t have any cravings for alcohol , of course when you omit the consumption for extended periods of time the it sure don’t take much to get a buzz on. I may just put that theory to test in Kerrville on Cinco de Mayo at the gathering of the BEB.
This is what happens when people consume too much demon rum…
This is about the new feature in Vista, User Account Control..
Needless to say this is why I no longer use any Windows OS on a daily basis.
User Account Control: Delivering a More Secure Desktop
The main goal of User Account Control is to reduce the exposure and attack surface of the operating system by requiring that all users run in standard user mode. This limitation minimizes the ability for users to make changes that could destabilize their computers or inadvertently expose the network to viruses through undetected malware that has infected their computer.
With User Account Control, IT administrators can run most applications, components and processes with a limited privilege, but have “elevation potential” for specific administrative tasks and application functions.
Conversely, when users encountera system task that requires administrator privileges, such as attempting to install an application, Windows Vista will notify the user and require administrator authorization. This type of prompting helps ensure that users do not accidentally make modifications to their desktops. It also helps eliminate the ability for malware to invoke administrator privileges without a user’s knowledge.
As a defense-in-depth measure, User Account Control also provides additional protection for administrators through its Administrator Approval Mode. With Administrator Approval Mode, Windows Vista will run most applications with standard user permissions even if the user is an administrator. If a user wishes to run a program that requires administrator permissions, they must give consent through a User Account Control prompt. This helps limit malware’s ability to make system-wide changes without the administrator’s knowledge. However, Administrator Approval Mode does not provide the same level of security or control as a true standard user account.
