Yep that is interesting, but like the poster says when you dang near have to run as an administrator on your computer for software to work there's not much you can do.

I've had stuff try to install or access the internet but the firewall has always popped up a notice asking if I want to allow it.

I hate Windows Firewall that came with SP2

I went around after a week the update came out and made sure that I turned it off on everybody's PC. Geez, I couldn't VNC or anything to anybody because it wants to block everything. And yet....there is now backdoors. Good-gogley-moogley.
