Inherent probem in Windows
This is an inherent problem in Windows, that the operating system is designed in such a poor fashion that you can't do much without administrator privileges. Too bad the "ease of use" has given it the market advantage. VHS won in the VCR wars because it was the "bottom of the line", though Betamax was better quality. If you want real security, ditch your crutch, your training wheels, your Fisher Price interface and join the grownup world of computing. And stop running as administrator all the time.
