Yes, that's correct. If you can get a DOS window open then XP Smart Security can't get a look-in. Rather a large oversight on their part not blocking cmd.exe (they could easily have done so).

That's great if you're comfortable using regedit and you know what to do to fix things, but if you don't then simply clicking on the file I linked to in the OP then rebooting is super easy to do.
