So it seems that a company called Beyond Trust did a little research into Microsoft’s disclosed vulnerabilities, and found that 92% of them could have been avoided if people didn’t have Admin rights.  You can read the full article at Computer World.

Honestly, I would have thought it was quite obvious that this was a big problem. Even with the UAC in Vista and Windows 7, it is a problem, and Microsoft just won’t admit to it.  Someone needs to hit them with a clue by four I think.
