   > why remove the roadblock for those frequently used tools and leave it in place for the less used or unused ones?
   
   Because the idea behind UAC is not to warn about dangerous admin tools, but to block unsolicited changes (like virus or spyware).

   "If a publisher makes something public but doesn't publicize that it's made it public, is that a publication?"
   I think publishing something takes many steps, and putting a file on a publicly accessible FTP is just one step; and it can't be the last one.
   I think it's alright to sneak at a public FTP, and I think it's cool to take a look at FF3 RC2 two days before official release. But spreading the word on it on a high traffic site is like yelling "hey look backstage! he's changing clothes!" at the theater.
   Anyway... you have a point; I just feel bad about the guy backstage.
