Hehe, I think all of us here have similar stories.
My in-laws have vista, and after I had to reinstall their computer due to
malware messing up some internal microsoft services, I told them either
they find someone else to help them with the computer, or agree to be
non-admin users on their system. Now only I have admin privileges, and
things have gone much smoother since then.
Unfortunately, malware can still fuck up your IE profile.
