DropMyRights (free) (164kb) browse safe as admin

DropMyRights (free) (164kb) from Microsoft

This is a very useful little program! It allows you to run apps as a limited user, when you have admin rights for example. The best situation for this imo would be the typical home user that prefers to do everything from the administrator account including Internet and Email. This would make web browsing and email safer in those situations. [add] This program doesnt slow down the launch of the application, and its a completely invisible process.

You just create a shortcut to DropMyRights followed by the App. For Example:

%programfiles%\DropMyRights\DropMyRights.exe "%programfiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

%programfiles%\DropMyRights\DropMyRights.exe "%programfiles%\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe"

%programfiles%\DropMyRights\DropMyRights.exe "%programfiles%\Maxthon\Maxthon.exe"

Will this keep a user from getting spyware via activex or whatever?
