,----[ Quote ]
| One of Vista's big security features is 'User Account Protection'

,----[ Quote ]
| SudoWn is more versatile than the built-in "Run as..." command. Programs
| are run as the user in question, rather than as another, more highly
| privileged user. The password for the Administrator account can stay
| secret, as the user needs only his own password to use sudoWn.
