    Hello,

    is it likely that Microsoft will fix the User Account Control flaws that
    Leo Davidson published with proof-of-concept code on
    ?

    Regards,

    Peter

    OK, got it. From the information in those forums Microsoft won't.

    BTW: Mark Russinovich _was_ one of my heroes. But statements like
    "...Windows 7's default mode is no more or less secure than the Always
    Notify mode..."
    () make my
    head shake.


    Regards,

    Peter
