Hi everyone,

I'm designing an Anti-Virus program for my own use (WOW!).
What I need to do is to let my Anti-Virus change the State of "Virus Protection" in the Windows XP Security Center from "Not Protected" to "Protected by Drycola's Antivirus". I think it is a registry issue, but how do I change it????

Thanx

You are joking, aren't you? Not using a virus database? These things, I woulda thought, take some huge collaborative effort. Course, the best AV is to cut the net cable n glue up all the I/O devices. Anyway...an you should know this... the key is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile]
"EnableFirewall"=dword:00000000
Best of luck. Really.
