    Start menu layout / Live Tiles under the Admin account?


    I am always running my system as a Standard User Account and sometimes when I need to test system settings I logon to my Admin account.

    However, on the Start menu layout, I left it as default, in other words, I have the Live Tiles showing up on the Start Menu Layout like Live News Feeds.

    Will this pose a security issue under my Admin account even if I do not browse the internet with a browser? Because I still think of having those Live Tiles on the Start Menu Layout as being on the Internet because they contain live content except with no use of a browser.

    Should I remove all of the Live Tile content from the Start Menu Layout under my Admin account?

    :)
