corp-dollar writes "According to this eWEEK story on the poor adoption of LUA (least-privileged user account) in Windows, a pair of Microsoft security consultants are pitching the idea of a security deployment repository to serve information and tools to handle LUA bugs and other problems businesses are facing. Sounds like a decent enough idea to cut back on the compatibility problems when trying to run business apps in no-admin mode."

I mean, how can Sony or UBI load their root kits on your box, and trash the system?

Once more again Microsoft is being insensitive to real world needs.
