			Anonymous Hero writes <I>"Security Researcher <A href="http://www.alex-ionescu.com/?p=34">Alex Ionescu strikes again</A>, this time with a <A href="http://www.alex-ionescu.com/?p=35">proof of concept program</A> that will arbitrarily enable and foremost disable the protection of so-called 'protected processes' in Windows Vista. Not only threatening Vista DRM and friends, it's also another step towards hardened and even more annoying malware. Normally, only specially signed processes made by special companies (decided by Microsoft) can be protected, but now the bad guys can protect any evil process they want, including the latest version of their own keylogger, spambot, or worm, as well as unprotect any 'good' one."</I>
