Did you implement the suggested fix for the <shmgvw.dll> exploit by
unregistering that .dll?? If so, the Windows Image and Fax viewer will not
function, along with the thumbnail viewer. If this is the case, be aware
that opening a pic file in Paint, Irfanview or just about any other viewer,
will present a vector for comprimise.

To mitigate this threat, execute...

REGSVR32 /u SHIMGVW.DLL

When Microsoft releases a patch the DLL can be re-registered.

REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL

Heirloom, old and if not, nevermind
