@peter.j.boyles@... Microsoft did attempt to solve least privilege in Windows Vista Beta, but Vista and 7 provide no solutions for least privilege. UAC, AppLocker, etc provide no solution for users that need to run applications, features, and installating key applications/activeX controls. There are many solutions that solve this, the longest player in the industry is BeyondTrust PowerBroker, which used to be owned by DesktopStandard (creator of the now Microsoft Group Policy Preferences released in 2007). PowerBroker is a Group Policy extension that EASILY creates policies for all applications, features, ActiveX controls for all standard users.
