From: Craig Humphrey on 28 Mar 2010 18:36 Hi, first up, I'm not entirely sure if this is the right forum, as this may be an IE thing, rather than a Win7 thing and it may not be specifically be around security. But anyway, here's what I'm seeing. I've recently started testing our corporate Win7 build and my day-to-day account is low privledged. My main apps, Outlook 2007sp2, Word 2007sp2, IE8, etc, spend all day running under this account. However sometimes I need to access restricted content, which requires me to run, in this case IE8, under a high privledge account (I have a separate account which is derived from Domain Admin), so I use RunAs with IE8 and use my high priv account. The catch is, that often when I click URL links in Outlook (under my low priv account), the high priv IE8 is the one that launches into the foreground. Mostly this isn't a problem, but for our internal systems that use Integrated or NTLM, I'm authenticating with my high priv account, which isn't what I want. I haven't tried this with other apps, as IE is the main one that is launched this way and is one of the few apps that I run in a different security context. Has anyone else seen this? Is there anything I can do to stop it happening?
