UAC workaround?

Oh God, bleeding heart moderator to the rescue!

3. Malware Doesn’t Normally Knock on The Door

If you’ve ever had the misfortune of being infected while UAC is on, you know the truth. UAC will not protect you from malware, since there are tons of different ways to call the Windows function library (WinAPI) without having to actually go through the feature’s screening process. The simplest method that malware uses to bypass the supposed security feature involves acting as an innocent application then writing all of the “bad stuff” to your AppData folder, which isn’t touched by UAC. Of course, there are other ways to bypass UAC, but I won’t discuss them for the sake of not giving people ideas.
"

If you are even somewhat OS savvy, you simply do not need UAC. Does your 90 year old grandmother? Yes, most likely. Does your 12 year old son? Yes, most likely.

I feel most of us on this forum are aware that "Super virus scanner 2012" is bad software, and we shouldn't download and install it.

3 day ban, obviously you didn't understand. Don't bash the community and then bash the moderator.
