But the most offensive thing is when AV software exposes you to remote exploits WORSE since the code has admin privileges EVEN if the user is not running as admin.<BR/><BR/>What's really offensive is that some AV software FORCES you to run as administrator so that the update can run.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10128704008699660671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37798047.post-64134378216798166932007-05-21T15:32:00.000-04:002007-05-21T15:32:00.000-04:00I wonder what this means for the coming 5-10 years...I wonder what this means for the coming 5-10 years? Security into the network? the Data? Moving away from Windows because, let's face it, Micrsoft really can't ever just start over because so much crap depends on what has already been made...which means more and more crap on top of crap...and it's just never good. Or maybe MS will just reinvent Windows like the reinvented Batman or Bonds from the past year? :) Finally breakout out of the whole "run as admin 98% of the time" into more fully user-only running? Or better yet, a trend back to terminals like TS or Citrix where all of this crap on crap is managed centrally?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15357840241031190415noreply@blogger.com
