On dear. Having turned "yes" to "no", if you now run up Microsoft Visual C++ V5.0 (SP2 in my case) you'll see the "no" change back to a "yes". REGEDT32 can be used on NT to make the Internet Explorer key read-only. This stops the "no" changing back to "yes". Predictably, it also stops the online documentation working in Visual C++. It might also cause problems in IE since IE will lack the permission to change its registry data. - martin. > -----Original Message----- > From: DilDog [SMTP:dildogat_private] > Sent: Thursday, January 15, 1998 1:00 PM > To: BUGTRAQat_private > Subject: Temporary fix for MSIE4.01 bug > > Here's a temporary fix for the MSIE4.01 bug that I posted yesterday. > > By no means is this official.
