Apparently it pops up multiple security dialog boxes for every thing you want to do: delete shortcuts, run programs, etc. I am so sad that I will be missing out on this feature, at least until my laptop gets refreshed. Maybe we'll have Linux on our laptops at work by that time.

I'm sure that all security will be removed by the time it is released because it will be too annoying and nobody sane will buy it. Security was a major reason for rewriting a ton of code and delaying the release a few years, so gutting the security before release will be totally worth all that investment. It's things like this which make me stay away from buying MS stock even though Office offsets this nonsense and brings in tons of revenue. There's gotta be a limit to how much Office can compensate for before it gets swamped.

And the disabling of features begins...
