Show me Groups working properly in Windows.

WTF? Every major corporate rollout of Windows uses groups (it would be impossible to manage a larger userbase without it). It certainly works fine for my multinational employer!
Quote:

But what set of permissions does the default user have on a clean install of Windows? Is there even mention that the user will have Administration priveliges? Are the users told that this is a bad idea?

In recent versions of Windows, the installation process creates an Administrator account and then prompts the user to create user account(s) which by default are NOT added to the Administrators group.
Quote:

The fundamental core of Windows is not secure. They have just built stuff around it to try to prevent people/worms/virii doing bad things to the system. Like Outlook blocking off all EXEs.

So what you're saying is the average home user does not know how to set up a PC securely. We all know this already, but what can you really do about it? And how the hell does that make Windows fundamentally insecure? If you said Windows was easy to set up insecurely I'd agree with you, but that's saying something completely different.
