Has anyone heard if MS is working on a permanent fix for this? Every time I want to print, I have to reverse the actions to prevent infection which is rather annoying. Thanks.

wow really? OK I'll hold off. Do I have to do anything else? I did the initial patch and the spool disable and your registry fixes. Thanks again.

Maybe I should rephrase that. Once I have completed all tasks as mentioned in my earlier post, is my system secure against this hack? Thanks.
