Hi all:

I might have dreamed this, but I'm wondering if anyone has seen a
utilty or add-on patch that cuases the the identity of the user to be
displayed in the title bar of a window. The app I seem to recall
seing displayed this info (logged in user) near the resize/close
buttons.

This was useful for running with lowest privilidge, but using "Run As"
to run utilities, etc. with alternate credentials.


Any ideas what I saw or where?


Thanks,

d.

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for or not, but there's an
ad/article in Windows IT Pro this month about TitleBar Clock Pro by
QuickerSoft. http://www.quickersoft.com I'm not sure about any free- or
open versions though.

I think you might be talking about PrivBar.
