Microsoft Pitches LUA Security Repository

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."

    We are here on the authority of a multinational force, that can no longer stand by and watch one of their greatest allies falling into darkness and despair. We are here on behalf on the thousands of civilians murdered under the current administration, who have no else to speak for them, and on behalf of the US units that have joined us to oppose the tyranny that has darkened USA, ever since the fraudulent elections five years ago. We are here to place President Bush under arrest, to stop state sponsored terrorization of our own citizens and return our government to the hands of her people. We know that many in the government have wanted to act but have been intimidated by threats of retaliation against your families, your friends. You are not alone anymore. We call upon you to rise up and do what's right. We have drawn their forces away and disabled them. The time to act is now. This is not the voice of treason. These are your sons, your daughters, whose loyalties have never wavered, whose beliefs in this alliance has forces us to take extraordinary means. For justice, for peace, for the future...we have come home.

      I disagree, it's brilliant. Not related to the article, but brilliant none the less.
