When I use to script of "Display Picture Changer"
There is a Alert...


Alert!
Symantec Script Blocking has prevented a script action that could be harmful to you.
    Application:     msnmsgr.exe
    Source file :     C:\background

    Object:            Windows Script Host Shell Object
    Method:           RegWrite

How can I use this script?

Any way in that Symantec program where you can allow certain scripts?

I suggest you uninstall Norton Antivirus and get any other antivirus that does not pretend that a software trying to write in the registry is, by default, harmful to your computer.

Can I just uninstall Norton Antivirus and dont get another one?
Cause I am using Zone Labs with Norton Antivirus now..

I highly do not recommend you not having an anti-virus.

You should always have an anti-virus. It is just that some are better than others. I personally use AVG Free.

I, myself, am using Symantec Anti-Virus for a while now, no problems with the scripts I have. (before anyone bothers to say, it's not Norton)

Dont worry about the warnings jeff and just tell your AV to ignore these "threats".

Actually there are a lot of viruses using WSH scripting (.vbs & .js files). And if they get access to the memory (and the ability to create/remove files), you'll never know what happens. That's why the anti-virus is blocking the registry interface, to prevent these malwares that actually exists. This is a good protection, too bad it blocks Messenger Plus!.

However Messenger Plus!'s scripts are using these interfaces in a good way. If there's an option to ignore it just for that process (msnmsgr.exe), that would be great for you.

Edit: Patchou can solve this problem by creating his own object for registry access instead of forcing the scripts to use the WSH object.
