Windows Live OneCare Family Safety Explorer.exe crash bug has a fix!

Thanks to Luc notifying us in the original post - you can read about the fix/workaround here.

An official fix for the Family Safety binaries is due in January 2008, but in the meantime, you can download the registry workaround here.

If you are curious what the .REG file does, it is modifying the behavior of the Browser Helper Object's interaction with Explorer.exe.

Since installing OneCare yesterday, my system has crashed more than 5 times.

What is wrong? I am afraid of this product!
