No reason whatsoever. Except that Microsoft disallowed it.
They say it is for security. But really, it's going to be a slippery slope to where in 20 years time the only code allowed on computers will be signed code (not just the drivers). Great, my computer is less likely to be taken over, but now I can't do anything useful with it. Want to break the DRM on that book you just bought. Sorry, no can do because only signed code will run.
