As if I care what is recommended by Microsoft. I run my windows installations (win2000 on a server and XP on a laptop, both are dual boot machines with Linux) always from an account with admin priviliges because windows is unworkable otherwise. Most windows programs are not designed for multi-user setups. My internet connection is behind a hardware NAT router, which is sufficient to have still 0 virus of malware infections. Ad-Aware only finds tracking cookies, and I get those on Linux too. >Microsoft strongly advises UAC be left on, They also recommend to leave WGA on, and they say they have good reasons too. However, good for them does not mean good for me. It started with XP, and with Vista it is stronger, that you have to hack your own system to counter the DRM shit it's equiped with. -- ir. J.C.A.
