Ideally Windows would be great if it followed the Linux way of working more - install as Admin (thats fine imo) but run as a completely unprivileged (guest or standard) user. I've had problems with windows machines not running software as unprivileged users before now. Causes too many problems due to the access and thus viruses / malware that get installed. --=20 Tim Igoe tim@igoe.me.uk http://tim.igoe.me.uk - Personal Site http://tv.igoe.me.uk - UK TV Guide http://f1forums.igoe.me.uk - *New* F1 Forums "Computers are like Air-con, open windows and they stop working!" --------------enig822CD48B366CD4D15E63399B Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEEIOI8n0qP1mU/QsRAtmJAJ9+7Mq4QJHHtynRGl7uG33YHIOwfQCfb5Gv coL2VSKb8JfpOFB5XO9weRI= =NWmm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig822CD48B366CD4D15E63399B-- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
