Well, It doesn't work for me. Maybe its because I'm using firefox and I have java script off. Anyways, thanks for the facepalm, I guess.

I use classic theme because 1. It gives much more customization options, 2. "Luna" is an gaudy, tacked-on waste of resources (disable theme engine) and 3. I don't like my taskbar to look like the top of a box of crayons.
Aaron, what's google?

It's funny seeing Vista on here, I have Vista on my other computer and i would just like to say "TO MANY PROTECTIONS" yes Vista punched the person who said "is there such thing as too many protections?" like when i want fraps working right when i start up (at the bottum of my screen) " there are some programs trying to run on startup" and when i look into the help me file and i probally quote this "you must hit 'allow program' every time you want it to run when windows starts". Oh and don't make me get started with me trying to run ANY program, to late you got me going, here is what it says, "Are you sure you want to run this 'Yes' 'No'" I mean REALLY! if i click on it i would like it to run for me. everytime it does that....everytime.

Home Premium is the same, except for all the new network security things that Ultimate uses from Business.
Hopefully you didn't shell out $400, in any case.
But, at first, it is annoying, but then you're like, "hey ... it actually stopped something" and it becomes less tedious and annoying.

I have a friend who uses Vista that claimed he didn't need virus protection. I tolled him that it was a load of crap and not to trust Microsoft. He toled me i was a idiot, and i said wait and see. Lo and behold 2 months later his computer is slowing down and he doesn't know why. I install SpyBot for him and it finds a crap tone of stuff. Later his cousins install Avg anti virus and that found a couple more problums. He's not computer illiterate ether. He know what and when to deny things.

Well, it's important to keep in mind you could give access to a program that has a security weakness.
Most viruses that come in to your computer come through a running application and attach themselves to "known" programs to go undetected. If it has its own process, Vista will see it and prompt the user ... but otherwise ...
People don't get that for some reason.

Its only a matter of time before virus programmers somehow find away around the cancel or allow thing.

I keep my PC clean without an active antivirus service, software firewall, or anything like that with XP SP2 and connecting through a properly secured router. I scan about once a month and find an actual threat maybe once every couple years. Out of the blue I installed adaware a couple months ago just to see what it could find, and was a little bit surprised when it found absolutely nothing.
Having done tech support in various schools and workplaces it really makes me wonder how people muck up their computers so badly so quickly.
I think my favorite image for a background would have to be the helix nebula.
