COM Surrogate has stopped working !!!!!!

Ever had problem while browsing folders in vista...One of the most common thing is COM surrogate has stopped working...Its really very annoying..Its caused mainly due to older versions of nero,divx,ffdshow codecs or thumbnail previews...

 
 
Heres the solution.....
   Right click on Computer, and choose Properties
Click on Advanced System Settings, and then under Advanced, click Settings
Select the "Data Execution Protection" tab, and then click Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select"
Click on the Add button, and then browse to C:\Windows\System32\dllhost.exe as shown..
Click Open, and then OK.

This should solve the problem for most....This method can also be used for other non responding exe`s.....Vista reallysuckss.....
