Nark Forums Junkie Location: Cabramatta, NSW Registered: May 2002	Re: Want to rip microsoft off? Legally! Thu, 07 October 2004 08:06 Norbie wrote on Thu, 07 October 2004 16:59 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! Norbie wrote on Thu, 07 October 2004 16:59 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. Hmm... I wasn't aware of those two. Norbie wrote on Thu, 07 October 2004 16:59 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. No, Windows is installed insecure. You then have to make it secure by doing things such as not allowing the automatic running of ActiveX controls, turning off unneeded processes, turn the local firewall on, restrict access to the registry, stuff like that. Add that to the fact that MS is extremely tardy in patching up holes... [Report message to a moderator]
