So very, very true.

Even the most sophisticated software can be overridden by a dumb user clicking "OK" to an alert.
this is why i at times question the value of the UAC in Vista. i bet most users will just click OK anytime that thing pops up.

Yep. MS made it too invasive, so you are clicking so often than it becomes a habit to just click any message. I turn off UAC on all Vista installs I work with, and my Dad asked me to take it off of his as well. Funny thing is I originally recommended he upgrade to Vista for the UAC (a long while back)...what a waste.
