Vista also pioneered User Account Control, a new feature designed to help prevent [[computer virus]]es and other [[malware]]. When a program tries to perform functions that require [[system administrator]] privileges, the operating system shows the user a confirmation box. If the user himself does not have system administrator privileges, he is required to enter an administrator password; otherwise, he must click an "OK" box. This feature has been criticized for irritating users legitimately trying to perform these operations.
