Yep go ahead and install that py that should sort the problem. I installed it and dont get the DSO Exploit anymore. Microsoft did release a fix for Internet Explorer though a while ago. The reason this keeps appearing (even though it was fixed) is that it still finds the values relating to this hole in the registry.

Correct, assuming you are up to date with MS hot-fixes. If you download the Spybot update from that site, it will stop reporting the problem once you have 'fixed' it.

I'll vouch for that.

In fact before that fix came out, knowing i had the MS patch against DSO exploit, I told spybot to ignore DSO in its scans. (settings,ignore products,security)
