Alternative to Windows Firewall by
PTravel
As has been noted, the default for the Windows Vista Firewall is to NOT
block out-going traffic. Though outbound blocking can be turned on, the
Windows Firewall does NOT pop up a "Allow/Disallow" window for programs

traffic. The only way to allow programs to send outbound traffic is to add
a specific rule for each...

Permissions to manage printers and documents by
Dave R.
How can I configure Vista Business so that a standard user account
automatically gets permissions to manage printers and documents for all
printers added to the system? After a printer is in stalled, an
administrator can change the permissions for the printer to allow this,
but I'm looking for a way for this to happen automatically. I've looked
through the local security policies and group...

Delete Pagefile on shutdown for security by
intwtl
I have used PGP on XP and to ensure there are no footprints I set XP to

Now that PGP is available for Vista I want to install it and again delete

UAC - Desktop and Start Menu by
Rich Bell
Why does Vista prompt for an Administrator password when I try to delete or
move shortcuts on my desktop or within my start menu? A regular user should
be able to control their own Desktop and Start menu. This is so intrusive it
makes for an annoying experience. It appears that this only occurs with
shortcuts that were placed there by the installer program (which required an
Administrator to...

Upon startup, Windows Sidebar fails to start with a message that it is
