From what I understand, some legacy software doesn't work properly simply due to the fact that they try to perform actions that require administrative privileges. They assume they have such privileges because they were created before Windows Vista, when UAC was introduced. Something to keep in mind in future videos like this.

Does anyone remember the Furbies from back in the 90's? Not the newer ones with the LED eyes. Furbies could talk to each other and could get annoying. Can you imagine 2 Bonzi Buddies talking to each other and spying on you?
