LOL, so you are asking if Adobe has fixed a vulnerability issue with the proprietary Microsoft HTML Help viewer product?

Lots of folks quite successfully use WebHelp with no issue. Can you expound on what you mean by saying "it was a bear"?

I have RH 11. .chm extensions obviously were rendered useless remotely. Cannot undo the security thigns via the registry hacks that have bounded around the last 8+ years.

Has Adobe ever addressed this and fixed the vulnerability?

Do any of the other extensions get around this problem? I heard that web help was a bear.
