  1. Comment - Allchin Suggests Vista Won't Need Antivirus

    (Nov 10, 2006 - 7:13 PM)

    Another one of those magic "features" that impair computer usability so much that nobody is going to use it...

    Take for example the "Content Advisor" in Internet Explorer or the "Data Execution Prevention" in Windows XP. The stuff might as well have a button saying "Click here to sell your soul".

    When are those silly programmers at Symantec, Microsoft, etc going to realise that impairing the usability of the computers is not the right way to approach security? ...You know, honestly, what would you think most people would rather have... a free of charge antivirus package or an OS that doesn't allow them to use the computer for whatever it is they want?
