Hi All!!
Upon making a Limited User account while making a How-To guide for Vista,
stumbled upon this flaw.
A Limited User is able to make an Aministrator User. Therefore bypassing the
Parental Controls and safety regarding the whole reason for making a Limited
User.
A Limited User should have just house permissions....Limited.
I am not sure if blocking access to the control panel applet/MSC or control
useraccounts applet/MSC would remedy the probem. Hopefully MS will address
and fix this issue before the release of SP1, or make a HotFix for it and put
it on their Update Server.
