This was talked about on GFY in about 20 threads (complete with fixes) about 2 weeks ago, and probably 2 months before that.
open regedit
go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\MIME\Database\ Content Type\
and then about 4 entries down inside the content type "folder" will be a folder that sais:
application/hta
Just rename that folder to:
application/htalkejrwlrkjwelrkj
......................^ put your own jibberish here.
Close it & you're done.
----------------
Then to close the other hole:
go to START button and run: dcomcnfg
If you're in windows 2000 or XP the menus are a bit different.
In XP... open Component Services, wait a few seconds and get it to display the "Computers" folder.
Expand that and you will see "My Computer" or whatever your computer is... right click on that and select properties.
Go to Default properties tab and disable DCOM.
(In Windows 2000 I think you can get
to the default properties tab right away.)
