I'm not particularly well up on Windows 7, but if you're talking about
applications by default NOT running elevated, then Vista was the same.

As you say, there is a difference between running applications simply
while logged into an administrative account and an application running
"elevated", but it's not completely new in W7.

Windows 7 has a more strict access control system (Microsoft changed it
quite a bit since Vista) - even if the user has administrative rights,
any programs started by that user do not get administrative rights
unless explicitly granted (via a dialogue). I welcome this change ...
but it seems they might have taken it too far?
