    Default Resident SD HELPER setting

    Hi

    is there a way to turn off and on this setting via cmdline, or through the registry, or using a script. I need to turn it off, do a task and then turn it back on.It seems the resident SDHELPER conflicts with a task I am trying to automate.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hmmm... just to make sure: we're talking about the Internet Explorer plugin, right?

    If you're a malware writer, you should really already know this :D so it's no secret to tell I guess: use for example regsvr32.exe to de-register and later re-register the SDHelper.dll file (or script regedit.exe with two .reg files where the first would remove and the second would re-add the BHO settings at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects\).

    If I was a malware writer I wouldn't need your help.

    I tried both methods (reg. serve & reg. keys) and neither of them worked. I'm using v1.5.1.


    ** reg. serve **
    - turn off:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\regsvr32.exe /u /s SDHelper.dll

    - turn on:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\regsvr32.exe /s SDHelper.dll


    ** reg. keys **
    - turn off:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects\{53707962-6F74-2D53-2644-206D7942484F}]

    - turn on:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects\{53707962-6F74-2D53-2644-206D7942484F}]


    Any other ideas?
