Small correction Jesper...

When writing the UAC chapter. I was a Technology Architect in Microsoft Managed Services not in Windows Core Os Security Division (COSD). During Vista development, I was a Program Manager in COSD, working on the UAC project. I'm currently privileged to be working as a Sr. Program Manager in the Microsoft Security Engineering Center group formally known as SWI.

Hansjörg: Yes, that is correct. It is why I use privbar to tell me what privilege level I am running with.

Regarding elevated explorer: The explorer does not show that it is elevated though, like cmd does (was my idea in the Vista TAP :-).

That's why i usually install Total Commander as an alternative file handling tool.

Else you can easily forget that your are actually running and elevated explorer.exe and things that UAC takes care of are not being taken care of any more - bang you can create a mass.

Thanks!

By strange circumstances and complete chance I spotted this new title about half an hour ago as being out soon, and bookmarked the page on my favourite online book retailer (The Register book shop). Now I know it's going to press I'll get my pre-order in and wait by the door for the postman.

Thanks to you and all the contributors for putting this book together, I'm really looking forward to getting to read it.
