As you know, Internet Explorer (rather, the vulnerability it) is a major source of contamination of the computer Trojans and Spyware. Previously, I described a difficult way to start IE human limited user. But recently opened a much simpler way. So is a program from Microsoft-DropMyRights. However, to take advantage of it, only those who have a Windows XP.
Now, close to the case. First you download the software Microsoft. A direct link to download. After downloading set it somewhere not much depth. For example C:\DropMyRights\ . After installation, you can remove all of the files except DropMyRights.exe. Now go to the label through which normally run IE, click on it, right-click and choose Properties. "Set Target (Object)" will be written something like "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" . So in front of this need to provide a path to DropMyRights. In my case amended reference will be : C:\DropMyRights\DropMyRights.exe "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe". After that, in the Run ("Window") below to make the Minimized that you do not appear terminal window, and click OK. If all of a sudden after this manipulation will change the icon label-at the same point in its properties click on the "Change icon (the change)", and switch it back on the IE icon. That's it. Now that anything harmful to your computer using IE hole will be nearly impossible.
I warn! No update Windows, and all software and Active-X of IE, launched in a way not. To install updates Active-X components, ejavascript:void(0)
Publishtc. need to run IE "clean" label, which label non-DropMyRights.
The work outlines the following : If IE running from the admin, it just takes it all right too, leaving only those people who have limited user. That it is not possible to write in the registry, in the system directory, etc. In general acts as RunAS only comfort : You do not need to submit the password and user choice. As a result, if a vulnerability in IE will be launched trojan, it will not be able to be registered in the register or copy itself in the system directory. That , in most cases, will not be able to do anything.

Microsoft withdraws Windows XP
Microsoft issued a press release today, which shows that the corporation decided to withdraw support for Windows XP all modifications-Home, Professional, Media Center Edition, and so on.
The reason for such a responsible and sensitive decision, said Microsoft, is that as early as 2001, it was revealed serious problem in the security source kernel operating system, Windows XP, which, as was evidenced by the internal investigation has been present since the time of Windows 3.1.
Issuance of Windows XP (SP2), which should have been corrected including that error in the security, led to a positive result : already at the beginning of January this year on the internet rumours rumours that the hacker team ExRsSS allegedly sent to Microsoft using the exploit hole, to provide complete remote access to a computer running Windows XP SP2. Probably these rumours are true ...
Microsoft strongly recommends that all users of Windows XP to buy and install a new operating system Windows Vista, which, as is known, was used by the source code is Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, which is above hole
