Security Management


When Microsoft introduced in Windows Vista UAC, it was defeated in almost everybody to being annoying, intrusivas and undesirable.


So with Windows 7, Microsoft has decided to respond to the denunciations and to alleviate in the calls. Now, there is a disturbance s, since it has caused security problems.


The problem: by defect, UAC in Windows 7 not to inform if it changes the configuration of Windows. By all means, which means a writing that can supplant and to send the pulsations of keyboard can be changed and not be seen the notifications.


To make matters worse, that includes the completely invalid formulation of UAC.


From there, a written evil could perpetrate all class of badness. In its position, the conditions of Zheng length that the solution could be as simple as to force a point whenever it is tried to change the UAC configuration.


In addition, if the crank until the notifications to always inform, which is going to also solve the problem. Correggalo if I am mistaken, but that has sense, truth? I ' m Microsoft arranged throughout this blow still. Windows 7 still is in beta and changes in UAC have become in response to the protests of their base of users. If you are to position and maintaining the protection car good, that would not have to suppose a significant risk.


They are not completely mistaken - to understand the implications and the potential so that this cause difficulties. Es' s only that I do not see this like a great business that sees that a great number of people who continue striking the drum of Windows XP and that s much less certainly Windows 7 - including " defecto" like this.

The documents are divided in several categories, including the commerce, the culture, the technology, the entertainment, the health, the entertainment, the law and others.

The idea to create a agregador of all the services to share the document that way is not bad in itself, that has moved in an interface similar to Digg, probably does not concern much. The innovation is not a damage, nevertheless, now, also continues being Pligg-like being different itself from other similar places.
