I'm a VB developer, not a gamer, not a heavy office user, I know the difference between an .exe and a .dll, I keep my own dang files organized -- I don't need the OS to index anything whileen-USTelligent Evolution Platform Developer Build (Build: 5.6.50428.7875)http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bethmassi/archive/2007/04/19/one-annoying-vista-problem-solved.aspx#8977719Mon, 06 Oct 2008 14:48:54 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8977719Logan<p>What's the big problem if I'm working on my personal computer as an administrator? I don't get it!!!</p> <p>There's no other users on the pc, the home lan is closed off and I can password protect anything I want to share anyway, so where's the security risk?</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=8977719" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bethmassi/archive/2007/04/19/one-annoying-vista-problem-solved.aspx#2286841Thu, 26 Apr 2007 17:13:48 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:2286841Beth Massi<p>Hi Bill.</p> <p>You don't run the SQL-Server service as administrator, only SSMS (SQL-Server Management Studio, the client IDE) and that's only if you need to attach/detach the databases. You can still run queries.</p> <p>Cheers,</p> <p>-B</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=2286841" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bethmassi/archive/2007/04/19/one-annoying-vista-problem-solved.aspx#2285985Thu, 26 Apr 2007 15:30:28 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:2285985Bill<p>Regarding SQL; do you have to be logged in to use it? Sounds like.</p> <p>In this case IT IS AN IDIOTIC IDEA!!</p> <p>It is a MAJOR security hole to work on any OS as an admin, super user etc.</p> <p>If Vista doesn't let you work as a standard user throw Vista out.</p> <p>Cheers</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=2285985" width="1" height="1">
