I have to admit that I run as administrator almost always.  Shame on me.  I understand that this isn't best practice, so I'd like to run a limited account.  The problem is that it's too limited.  What does everyone else do?

Also, after reading about the "high security threat flaw" in sp2, I wonder why Microsoft doesn't educate the user more about not running in Admin mode.  It would be rediculous in linux to run on a root account, why is this different for Windows?

It seems like they could have added like a toaster popup that says "You have just spent 1 hour as an admin, click here to find out why this is bad."  And have this feature defaulted on.  Maybe something to think about for Longhorn.
