    Default unable to open any shockwave files

    hello folks,

    i'm unable to open any of the shockwave files ( i only have a dozen or so) which i could previously open before installing S&D.

    the S&D window states: two headings malware/heuristic with the swf file i selected with "nothing found" under the status column. there is also a "scan finished" status as well. this window appears not because i'm running S&D; instead i'm selecting a swf file and the S&D window opens up.

    just to humor myself, i uninstalled/reinstalled adobe flash player 10. and there are no problems with IE7 & browsing the web. Vista OS.

    Hello,

    To disable the single files scan please open the registry editor by:
    (a)
    press windowskey + r then enter "regedit" (without quotation marks)
    or
    (b)
    click on "start" , then "run" and enter "regedit" (without quotation marks)

    (a+b)
    and then browse to the following path.

    Please delete the following registry keys:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\sdfiles
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\sdfiles
