Let's say you want to stop BADPROGRAM.EXE from launching, okay? Try saving the below text as a .REG file and importing it:
[codebox]Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
; Stop BADPROGRAM from Launching
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\BADPROGRAM.EXE]
"Debugger"="ntsd --"
"GlobalFlag"="0x000010F0"[/codebox]
Of course, change BADPROGRAM.EXE to the name of the spyware executable (spyaxe.exe, BearShareZangoInstaller.exe, etc..)
As I understand it, this section of the registry checks to see if a program or .DLL needs some special settings to run properly. If you use "ntsd --" the debugger is called and exits - and the program never really runs!

This means that whenever an application called BADPROGRAM.EXE tries to start, this will cause it to exit?
This is a very nice piece of information - thanks!
