If I understood well, vim is executed as non privileged user, not root. But the permissions of all files (inexistent in ntfs) are set according to a predefined mask which, in this case, includes execution privilege for user, goup and other which, of course, can be a relative security risk if the owner is root. Maybe that is what you would mean... NOTE: The write permission in the mask cannot be removed because, for directorys, this means the "enter" permission (read and write permissions in directorys always belongs to its contents). Then, the only way to remove execution permission for root in a ntfs files is setting the ownership of the whole filesystem to other user..
