Summary: Problem after installing WinXP SP2

Initial Comment:
Not so much a bug as a "How to?" issue. After installing 
WindowsXP SP2, each time I boot up my PC, Windows 
Security Centre pops up some text in the DQSD bar 
saying that there is a security risk running scripts... 
blah, blah.... 

If I then right-click the text, it allows me to ignore the 
warning, and after another Yes/No dialogue box I can 
run DQSD as normal. But it's annoying to have to go 
through this palaver after every system boot. I'm 
looking for a one-time permanent fix.

Investigating the Windows Security settings shows that 
you can exclude programs from its embrace but I can't 
find the exe file for DQSD.

Can anyone help please?

I posted the instructions to disable the general
explorer.exe security at http://www.dqsd.net/sp2.htm . Like
Kim said, no guarantees with respect to malware getting in
through the leftover hole. I suppose I should add another
disclaimer to that page too.

Hi Peter,

The .exe you want to exclude is explorer.exe. DQSD is hosted 
in Windows Explorer, hence this oddity.

We still haven't gotten around to investigating any security 
implications of doing this, though, so disable the protection at 
your own risk. It should be safe, but I can't make any 
guarantees.

We'll look into adding an entry on this to the FAQ later/asap.

Best wishes,
Kim
