Disable VML

Last Updated: November 30, 1999

Recent security exploit found that uses VML to allow hackers to keylog your system and know your passwords.

Disable VML to be safe, get firefox to be even safer.

How To Disable VML:
1. Click Start
2. Click Run
3. Type: regsvr32 -u "%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VGX\vgx.dll
4. Press Enter
5. Click OK

Download firefox: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/

Please note that downloading firefox will not make you 100% safe but it is A LOT safter than internet explorer.

I suggest using firefox and disabling VML to be safe from this exploit.

If you beileve you have been hacked by the VML exploit and have a keylogger on your system DO NOT login to bank related sites, paypal or any sites you don't want anyone else to know your passwords too.
