Re: Insecure Loading of Dynamic Link Libraries in Google Chrome

Yes, that would be logical, but the fact that they require that you _create_ the key seems to throw logic aside. They assert that the function is enabled by default in Windows XP SP2 and later, so if it is enabled by default and there is no registry entry regarding it, why would any user or application insert a registry entry unless to override the default? Overriding the default would allow for control of the mode, but MS isn't using the logic that you describe when it comes to naming the entry.

Then again, can we expect MS to always to follow their own normal convention?

p.s. Maybe it was too early when I posted this. It may well be logical to suggest adding a registry entry if the purpose of that entry is to override the default safe search mode in order to change the order of the search or even to disable it. One registry entry would be good enough for that, I guess.
