Vista - Windows 7 vs Windows Vista: the UAC Benchmark.

One of the most hated features of Windows Vista is the User Account Control, or UAC in short. Many people found it annoying and chose to disable it right away, even if this meant exposing their system to additional security threats. In Windows 7, Microsoft has seriously changed this feature. Now users have a lot more control over it and how it works and it should provide a better user experience. To see how much improvement this means in numbers, I have run a comparison between the default Windows Vista and Windows 7 UAC levels. Let's see which one wins and why.
Benchmark Description: What I Tested

First, I searched for the list of all tasks which require administrative privileges which can trigger an UAC prompt. I started with this list of items which trigger User Account Control prompts from Ed Bott and customized it a bit to be as relevant as possible for both Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
