There is a admin account created. You have the option to create additional.
Just because the configuration methodology is different does����t mean the capability i�����t there. -sc From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 28, 2009 4:27 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: MICROSOFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS I disagree. On my linux system at home, I do not have����admin��� privileges by default. I built the thing and my normal user account does not have admin privileges. I did not have an option to make myself an admin. I would have had to go in and make my account a local admin, it was not a local admin by default. From: Steven M.

I can reboot my workstations all day long, and I have separation of Admin and User accounts. If you are talking at _INSTALL_ time, the UNIX is no different. -sc From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 28, 2009 4:15 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: MICROSOFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS Eh I was mostly picking, but I think that the *nix security model is better than Micro�����s. They still seem to have the problem of the first person to boot up a computer is the system admin. Even with the updated security models, they dont have that particular problem resolved.

Focused solely on anti-malware functions, it has average performance, as OneCare did. But that may improve during the beta-and the software is free. PROS: Generally decent at removing and blocking malware. Small download. Simple user interface. Free for personal use. CONS: Less effective against rootkits and scareware. Requires surprisingly large amount of disk space. Forces Windows Update into full automatic mode. RATING: 3.5 out of 5. Also, I added MSE compared to VIPRE over here: http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/documents/vipre_vs_mse.pdf Warm regards, Stu Sjouwerman Founder, VP Marketing.
