The users that are the problem anyway will vote for convinience with their wallets. If they wouldn´t, they would not be buying the systems that conviniently allow them to execute and install code in the first place. It would be financially suicidal to make a piece of software to bother the user.
It doesn't cost the user any extra to include such a feature in the next version of Windows, and in all the Critical Updates downloaded starting tomorrow. [Obviously it costs MS something to do the software development.]
