hi all,
the recent vulnerability in all versions of windows whereby any hacker can
deposit any amount of malware on your computer needs to be addressed
immediately.
however, till the time Microsoft releases an update to address the issue, you
can unregister one of the DLLs to address the vulnerability.
please type in the following command exactly in the run & press enter,
whereafter you should get a message indicating that the process succeeded. the
command is:
regsvr32 -u "%CommonProgramFiles%\MicrosoftShared\VGX\vgx.dll"
