User Acount Control by Matthileo
I have had about enough of this stupid feature. It keeps my antivirus stuff from running at startup, and it annoys me to no end. I tried to turn it off, but it gave me a scary warning that bad things would happen if I did. Now, my question... What are the real harms to disableing that stupid feature, and if they realy are that bad, how can I configure it not to be so dumb? --

Excel 2003 KB923088 install problem on Vista RC2 by Nick Payne

BitLocker - TPM & Multiple PINs by tavis
Can TPM chips support multiple PINs? If so, can BitLocker support multiple PINs with the TPM to secure startup keys? For example, multiple users of a single system could each be assigned a separate PIN. (I know BitLocker can support multiple Startup Keys on USB)

Symantec and McAfee by Dave Neve
Hello I'd like to know what people think about Symantec and McAfee criticising Microsoft's Vista for having it's own security suite I'm no fan of Bill Gates and Microsoft but even I sympathise with them on this one. Imagine a car seat manufacturer criticising Ford for bringing out a new car with nice seats.

WLOC is running but Security Center RC1 still reports Avast by SteveC
Says Avast and WLOC are both running, but this isn't so. Avast was uninstalled before WLOC and the program folders are deleted. Also, checked in services.msc and Avast is not running. So this is a bug. How do I go about getting rid of the erroneous message?
