But just showing a pop-up for something as critical as malicious program execution from USB key is ridiculous. The OS has to be re-designed to minimize the effect of any such malicious executions and if at all one occurs it shouldn't need an OS re-install to fix. In Vista for default user, once the user allows (by muscle memory), the app gets full admin access to entire system.
