Hello: Is there a tool to view or edit the mandatory integrity control labels (System, High, Medium, Low) in the system access control lists (SACLs) of secureable objects like NTFS files? Thank You!

I haven't seen this discussed, and may even have the wrong subject. In observation I see that apps such as Trend Micro, McAfee, Mail, Word, and Office Outlook when executed do not get the UAC dialog box. Am I correct in assuming that this is because these apps have the proper credentials to satisfy UAC when they are launched? Does this require an Authenticode certificate in signing these...

Hello, thank you for taking the time to explain UAC, Q: UAC is Microsoft's way of controlling my computer and preventing me from using it! A: This is 100% UNTRUE. UAC puts control of your computer IN YOUR HANDS by allowing you to prevent unwanted programs from accessing your computer. *Everything* that you can do with UAC turned off, you can do with it turned on. If this is...

I've configured my drives correctly and set the Policy for allowing non-TPM USB Mode. but every time i try to run the System-check it reports that my USB Drive cannot be read from the BIOS. I've tried this on multiple BIOS-Updated Systems and still get the same result. I use build 5728\RC1 Ent. Edition

Loved Avast and it worked well until the latest build. I am just going to wait until they come out with a new version or fix for it. It was too good to used anything else available. I have been a long time Zone alarm user, and loved it, but until they make one for Vista, Avast is a blast! bennu

You would think with the amount of people running 64bit processors and with the relatively close release of Vista that somebody in Microsoft would be getting themselves organised by now to port Onecare to the 64 bit platform, now that its effectively retail on 32bit (still supported) platforms. For sometime now I have been running Vista x64 on the family PC and compared with XP its a breeze and...

Does anybody know what website windows update is using with vista rc1? I am getting an error when it t?

I don't see where anyone has mentioned MS's own AV software...WOC.Live -- barny

I recently installed the RC1 build and wanted to install F-Secure Client Security as well. The installation went fine and everything seems to be working except the update function. Vista blocks the automatic updater at startup and after that the manual wont work (obviously neither does the automatic one). It says the updater is not classified yet. Is there any way to let it run?

I just installed 5728 on a dual boot system. I also installed the Office 2007 Beta Refresh. Since I am using a dual boot configuration with office installed both on XP SP2 and Vista, I would like to share the same PST (located on my XP drive). When I try to access the PST from Vista, I am told that I do not have the permission do so. After turning UAC off, I can access the file. If I...

I tried to do a dir *.* /s files.txt and I received an access denied message. Anyone know how to fix this? I am part of the administrator groups so privilages should not be an issue although whenever I start a new program a the user account control window pops up and asks my permission to allow the program to continue.

I want to upgrade my WinXP Pro to Vista RC1, but I tested in the lab and it removes the Admin tools. I have a 2000 AD. The only way I know to get AD admin tools (AD Users and computers, AD Sites/Services, etc.) is to actually set up Longhorn Server, the make it a DC, then use the tools installed to administer the other domain. Is there any other way?

I have been able to make BitLocker work with the TPM on a Lenovo Thinkpad T60. BUT I am running into problems when I try to do a BitLocker recovery. In order to test the recovery, I inactivated the TPM in the BIOS utility and as expected BitLocker prompts me for the recovery password. It seems to accept the password and seems like windows is booting but it crashes with a blue screen after a...

First, I turned off UAC and rebooted. Then I ran the install program in Compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2. It was also set it as run as Administrator. When the installation was complete I then rebooted. With the AVG virus program updated and running properly I enabled UAC again and rebooted. Now AVG is working and I have no compatibility warnings from Vista. When I originally tried...

Hi All, I found I call logon ebanking web site which is using JVM. Even I installed latest Java from java.com. How can solve it. Thanks. CM

OC will not install on Vista. Period. OCBeta will send previous beta testers a notice when OC becomes available for Vista. Please don't tell people to go ahead and use a product when it's not compatable, and Vista will not allow it to install anyway due to the compatability issues.

Now that the compatability issues have been resolved, Avast is my choice of AV software. Trend was really affecting my IE performance, let alone the overall performance of my build 5728. even if I never have liked the avast "VCR" skin, I've been using it for a long time. I've tested most of the AV software out there for xp, and they all suck in some way or another. The best protection...

I installed Quicken on Vista, and ran it as one user, and then when I ran it as another user at the same time, quicken complained that it was already being run by another user. So Vista is leaking data among users, specifically, that other users are running particular programs. This is a security problem. A program running in one user account should have no way to know whether that same...

I've set up a "Standard user" account for my son, but he is not able to play his flash based game on it. The game works fine when IE is run as administrator. The game is on http://www.clubpenguin.com and uses Flash 9. I cannot find any indication as to what isn't working: there are no 'yellow bar' messages, event viewer messages, parental control logs. I've tried switching the firewall off...
