Re: Windows 7 vulnerability

There is probably i heard about a security problem affecting the UAC but i think patch is available for that.The changes made by Microsoft unfortunately allow a malware in the beta of Windows 7 to change the security level of the UAC. you can read more here Windows 7 security issue with the UAC. but for the best you have to wait till October 22 as Windows 7 is going to release.

Re: Windows 7 vulnerability

Hi,

Win7 is in RC right now and the retail version will get released on Oct 22nd. Win7 has been already released to OEM manufacturers as well as Enterprise customers of Microsoft (I work in MS BTW). If you got Win7 RC, you can test that on your machine and its pretty stable. If you are satisfied with it, then you can buy the retail version after the release. RC will expire somewhere around July/Aug 2010.
