Security forums, advisories claims that by restricting privilege access rights, it will stop malware from infecting the systems. The interesting article (URL below) claim otherwise?
If you allow guests or none admins to use internet.MSN,Yahoo etc and they click a bad link or download a picture from a friend they can still infect the pc.
Well Jelly you are right, malware will still infect the machine. But they say the effect and spreading of the malware will be checked in a non-admin account. Well, I haven't tried this before, don't know.
I have cleaned a none admin account before but I am totaly unsure if this would be localised to the none admin account only.As the infection was an early detection.The admin account was checked and was clean.
