Restricted Sites List fix: File question

In the excellent tutorial *"How to Fix a Slow Windows Mail"*, found at
the following link,
http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/72...mail-slow.html
a pair of files are offered for download under the *"How to
Fix the Restricted Sites Issue".*

By any chance, are these two files reversed? I note that the one
intended to fix the problem, *"SlowWinmail_Fix.reg"* eliminates the
registry entry, while the one intended to remove the fix,
*"Undo_SlowWinmail_Fix.reg" *installs the registry entry with value "1".

This issue was discussed by "Javacool Moderator" on May 19th, 2007,

'SB restricted sites slows up Vista Windows Mail - Wilders
Security Forums'
(http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?p=1028898)
(which I found from a link in this forum). The code from his
fix is:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_MIME_SNIFFING]
"winmail.exe"=dword:00000001


The above code matches the Undo file mentioned above, while the "fix"
file mentioned above ends up with the following:


"winmail.exe"=-


I would greatly appreciate clarification of this. Yeah, I
know, it's an old problem fixed long ago, but I have been suffering all
this time and would like to be done with it!

I might mention that I also have (and need) a large number of
contacts and various workarounds are all worse than the problem, a case
of the cure being worse than the disease, at least in my case.

Thanks to all!

JERRY

Please state your full Windows version (e.g., Vista SP1; Vista x64 SP2) when
posting to this newsgroup. In this case, also state your current IE
version.

Is this computer fully-patched at Windows Update? [KB931768 (MS07-027) has
been superseded many times since its release in May 2007!!]

Do you have Spybot installed and fully Immunized? Do you have ZonedOut
installed?

Last but not least, are you seeing slow performance in WindowsMail?

The webmaster of the vistax64.com site, Brink, frequently posts
here, so he will probably respond to you shortly. Or you can
reach him via the Contact Us link on that site.
