I just have been working with Surun 1.2 for a while running XP Professional. It is surprising how well designed this program is. I found it much easier to use than I thought and if you understand the theory of using a limited user account you see how much simpler life can be – I wonder if this is better than Vista’s thing (I’ve only read about Vista’s system). I especially like how the little icon in your tray turns red and a clear popup tells you a program is runing with admin rights. Since the author is German it is great to find the program written in very clear English.

I really like the layout of this program. Perhaps it is too new to be considered “safe” for critical uses but I have been surprised at how little this functionality impacts performance (I even tried it on a P3 800 mhz machine with XP pro – no noticeable performance slowdown.) So far so good.
