"In this article I discuss the problems UAC solves and describe the
architecture and implementation of its component technologies. These
technologies include the refactoring of operations that previously required
administrative rights, lightweight virtualization to help programs run
correctly without administrative rights, the ability for programs to
explicitly request administrative rights, and isolation of administrative
processes from non-administrative processes running on the same user
desktop."

Hi,

UAC is a joke. I can't believe Mark Russinovich has put his name to
this. He's obviously been brainwashed to abide by the party line. It's
sad, because he was the last bastion of independent thinking in the
world of networked computer operating systems.
 
Yeah, it is obviously part of the big insidious scheme to dominate the world
by selling software full of bugs so people have to upgrade for years. It's
amazing to imagine the brainwashing machine they have at the mothership. They
must have an army of doctors just to perform all the lobotomies, not to
mention the PR machine to hush it all up. Either that or people are signing
up because they want to catch the high-flying Microsoft stock that's been
going up like you wouldn't believe. I mean, why else would anyone work for a
place that removes all independent thought from you as soon as you walk
through the door? We should all buy Apples instead to show our disdain for
the evil empire and because they are "secure by default" and don't need silly
features like UAC enabled.

Because, it couldn't *possibly* be that Mark is right and you are wrong and
impatient.
