Cannot disable Windows Picture and Fax Viewer

Hi

I want to disable Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (shimgvw.dll) so that the image metadata and video dimensions are not displayed in the details pane.

I read that all I have to do is Start > Run > type in "regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll", hit enter.



But when I do that, I get an error saying
Quote:
"The module "shimgvw.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer was not found.
Make sure that "shimgvw.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again"
What's wrong? And how do I successfully unregister the dll?

Regards
