Replace Vista's User Account Control with Smart UAC
Arguably Vista's most notorious feature is User Account Control, which has its heart in the right place (i.e. it tries to stonewall malware) but annoys the bejeezus out of most users--who usually end up disabling it altogether.
Smart UAC's dialog window offers two additional options: "Always allow every action of this program" and "Always deny every action of this program." Smart UAC also has an allow list and a deny list which can be edited manually. Note that you have to always click on "Cancel" if you don't want the program to start, even though you want to add it to the deny list.Sounds good, no? Definitely something you might want to consider deploying to your users, especially those who are savvy enough to disable UAC--and potentially open the door to malware in the process. As an added bonus, Smart UAC features a built-in malware scanner.
