And if so, will everyone in the world sue them and force them to remove it?

 It's deja vu all over again!

I'm still cheesed about having to create a Live game account just to save my progress.

It does boggle the mind.

This isn't much of a news item.  I have never read anywhere that Windows 7 UAC eliminated the need for antivirus - in fact you will be nagged about installing AV by the security settings advisor if it doesn't detect that you have one running.

Did Sophos "run" executable viruses while logged in with administrator priveledges to see if they would be blocked without AV?  I would be very interested to know what level of UAC they were testing at, assuming that it didn't pop a warning when enabled at the highest setting.  Otherwise, what did they expect?

A link to the Sophos "test" would be useful where the information is so minimal.

You will never go back to the bottom.

You mean I have to reinstall and reactivate XP before I can do a clean install?

Glad I didn't jump on the pre-order. I like MS but this seems a bit draconian.

The reason people aren't paying for music is because you are trying to sell crap that isn't worth paying for.

It kills me how people bash bing just because it isn't google. 

Bing "Maximum Pc"

Google "Maximum Pc"

WTF!  The tenth most "relevant" return on google is www.adsbygoogle.com  Give me a frigging break!

More like a "word from our sponsors." I don't mind since I'm sure it keeps MPC online, and it is information that we can choose to investigate further or ignore.
