Topped that.
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_11\bin\ssv.dll
This DLL registers *one hundred and three* ClassIDs:
{CAFEEFAC-0013-0000-0003-ABCDEFFEDCBA} Java Plug-in 1.3.0_03
{CAFEEFAC-0013-0000-0004-ABCDEFFEDCBA} Java Plug-in 1.3.0_04
{CAFEEFAC-0013-0000-0005-ABCDEFFEDCBA} Java Plug-in 1.3.0_05
{CAFEEFAC-0013-0001-0000-ABCDEFFEDCBA} Java Plug-in 1.3.1
{CAFEEFAC-0013-0001-0001-ABCDEFFEDCBA} Java Plug-in 1.3.1_01
...see a pattern yet?
Yep, there's a COM registration for every point-releast from 1.3.0_03 up
to 1.5.0_11. Which is pretty crazy, no?
Next time you install some program and it says "registering components"
or "writing registry keys", this is what it's doing. It's registering
millions of COM ClassIDs!
