Does anyone know what the exact difference between a
knowledgeable User and a Novice User in the general
settings area of MAS Beta1 is? I know that I'd classify
most of the people that I'll install it for as novice but I
need to know what it actually changes. Thanks
 
Settings: General
User Modes

Microsoft AntiSpyware comes equipped with a number of user modes. These user
modes generally reflect the experience and expertise you have when using a
computer. You should try to select a user mode that best meets your
experience when using your computer. The following are the user modes:



Knowledgeable User. A knowledgeable user is familiar with many of the
functionalities of a computer. This can range form a very technical user to
a skilled power user. If you select the Knowledgeable User Mode, you will
have complete control of blocking, deactivating, and removing installed
applications. Selecting this mode will allow you to take any action on
various alerts regardless if the action selected is the recommend action for
the software. It is extremely important that when using this mode and
presented with actions such as blocking a program's full installation or
parts of the installation you completely understand what you are doing.



Novice User. A novice user will be restricted on some of the actions that
they can perform when presented with various alerts. These restrictions will
generally be based on Microsoft AntiSpyware's recommended action under the
circumstances.
