^^ Here is a backup file. Download following Zip file, extract it and you'll get a backup.reg file. Run it and it'll restore the keys:

Hi,

I have a VISTA freezing problem on my second generation macbook pro. After every couple of days, VISTA freezes for no reason at all and I have to force shutdown it and then restart it. It doesn't happen on Mac OS Leopard but only on VISTA which I have installed through Bootcamp.

Previously, I was running the system as a dual boot with both operating systems and I was having this problem in VISTA. A I am an Apple harware lover and Microsoft Software lover, so I have completely removed Mac OS now and only running VISTA on it as a primary OS, but still having the same problem. VISTA freezes completely after two or three days.

Hi, VG, I have a problem. I try to access my dialog box through my programs, and the boxes would freeze every time. It started happening a month or so ago, and I can't seem to find the problem. I can't save anything, or open anything into my programs. Do you have any insight to this issue?

VG, I have an interesting (and maybe related) issue. I followed your tutorial for "explorer freezing during large file transfer" and it seemed to work. However, now explorer freezes all the time (every boot-up) after about 1-10 min. nothing running, no program trigers it, it just stops working. THe weird thing is that the mouse is movable the entire time, but no buttons or keystrokes are registered by the system. Hard boot is the only remedy. Something very bad has happened!!! (lol) I followed your directions to undo the DEP disable and that didn't help... in fact, the DEP options are still "grayed-out" in the user settings window where one can usually make adjustments. Any advice?

^^ Its not a program. Its a built-in feature which allows to create/extract zip files.
