UAC (User Account Control)

Wow! There is a huge difference of opinion on this feature.

From TechWeb article

Much-Improved User Account Control

The most reviled feature of earlier Vista builds, User Account Control
(UAC), has thankfully been reined in with Beta 2. For the first time, it is
actually useful, and goes some way toward solving a security problem that
has long bedeviled Windows.



From PC Magazine http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1965703,00.asp

One of the significant differences in Beta 2 is that the implementation of
UAC (user account control) privilege elevation is much more
intrusive-objectionably so, in our experience so far.

It looks like one of these organizations has a "private" agenda.



I personally do not find it all that intrusive.
