Well then, here you go: I took a closer look at Tiny 6.0.140 in early January this year. The default install is wide open (no filtering at all). It has interactive privileged processes, so it may be susceptible to shatter attacks. It installs no less than eight drivers and five services. And it tries to establish a security system that mimics the Windows file and registry ACLs instead of simply utilizing the existing security mechanisms. Not to mention that the UI is next to unusable.
