Microsoft uses Warez?

We developed a program named ‘ReducedPermissions’ a while back. It is a free utility that allows you to run Internet Explorer as a non-administrator. Recently, we have been getting a lot of questions about it. The biggest question is: Does it work like DropMyRights?

I have never used this program before so I started to search for it on the net, and determined that it was a free command line program provided by Microsoft.
