ndmmxiaomayi SG Oh... must be my itchy hands again. I had tweaked the group policy... it will prompt me... but for some reason... after I agree... it's still disabled. Hehe
ndmmxiaomayi SG If some idiot exploit you... you will be infected. There shouldn't be any sign or symptom of being infected until your ISP starts serving you notices. Or if you have any registry monitor, because according to the article, it modifies the registry. So... disable that addon. Tools > Manage Addons Find that addon and disable it. It's named HPClass... the one you downloaded.
kenn3th SG i itchy hand again. go download it. so that's the live strain isit? or is it the testing strain.
ndmmxiaomayi SG For the interested, here's what I did to my Group Policy. 1. Start > Run and type in gpedit.msc and press Enter. 2. Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer 3. On the right hand side, double click on Do not allow users to enable or disable addons. 4. On the Setting tab, select Enabled. 5. Click OK to apply the settings. 6. Then go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer 7. On the right hand side, double click on Do not allow users to enable or disable addons. 8. On the Setting tab, select Enabled. 9. Click OK to apply the settings. When you open IE and check the settings (Tools > Manage Addons > Enable or disable Addons...), it should be greyed out. So even if you click OK... it won't run... because Windows doesn't allow you to enable or disable an addon. See the above picture... the HPInfo Class addon is downloaded and attempted to run... but due to policies in place... it can't run. Hehe
ndmmxiaomayi SG Just disable it lah. I also can't delete it. God cares. Unless someone else find another way to exploit it, I wouldn't care so much. So, for now, use your brain. Don't anyhow allow anything.

ndmmxiaomayi SG Who is knockonmydoor? I know, my Compaq also tio. But due to the restrictions I've set, it didn't work.

turbo_drift SG XP i know. Mine is Home Edition, dun have gpedit.msc command.. Heard from my lecturer that only XP Professional have the command, gpedit.msc..
ndmmxiaomayi SG Yeah, I know Home don't have. XP Pro have because it's for business... OK, registry hack uploaded. http://www.mediafire.com/?4dty0zyy91s Double click on it and click on Install. By default, it installs to the desktop. Double click on the registry file to merge it. Check your IE settings afterwards. Tested on XP SP2 and Vista Business. The rest, not my dai ji!
