I appreciate it. <BR/><BR/>I would like to mention a couple things in response to your blog rant.<BR/><BR/>1) In the first paragraph of Mr. Delber's article, he uses the phrase "User Account Control and Virtualization" which is accurate. A little further in he writes "UAC lends a helping hand by virtualizing the file system and Registry namespace." Again, accurate. From that point on he does refer to the process as UAC virtualization which I propagated in my comments on my blog post.<BR/><BR/>2) However, Microsoft does the same thing. Particularly in their FAQ on User Access Control here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772207.aspx.<BR/><BR/>Considering the two statements above, I view your rant as out of line and itself lending to the problem you are ranting about.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Kevin Riggins<BR/>kriggins _at_ infosecramblings.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
