OllyDbg under Vista

I've asked myself whether Olly would still work under Windows Vista (RC1/RC2/Final maybe even x64) or whether there will be restrictions to debugging or even no support for the good Olly at all.
Maybe some of you already made some experience with that system.

(Furthermore I wonder if they improved the pidgen (or ported it to .net *hah that would be fun*) or left the good old system).

the last time i tried to test olly with vista was back in the time of beta2 (june) and it worked in both native 32bit and WOW64.
hopefully things are still the same

I didn't tried out by myself, but just read in another forum, that Olly still works with Vista.
But there are problems with some of the plugins.
So you have to disable all plugins and try out if they are working or not...

So I managed to install the trial vista version (x64) and olly itself does make problems. First of all though I have administrative rights olly kepps saying I wouldn't and I can attach only to a few third party applications (I have only one in the attach list).
*I think it's because only those run in 32bit mode*
Since I don't need to use some deep-system-hook-plugins all of my regular plugins work.
Now going to try out the 32bit version - maybe it will do better.

EDIT: Both problems solved:
1. of course olly cannot access x64 apps (so vista32 helped)
2. Vista has an rightclickoption "run as admin" now all deep systemprocesses are shown and I've not seen further problems

You could completely turn off the UAC of Vista, since it only works with programs included in Vista only. For other programs, Vista won't even ask for permission and just deny any action (like you saw with OllyDbg).

The UAC of Vista should show you the permission dialog if the filename is "setup.exe" or "update.exe".

But I also agree that UAC is useless in its current state so you can turn off.
