WinRAR 3.50 Beta 5 Shell Extension Fix

If you don't want to do all of that hacking to WinRAR, just grab Extended64's WinRAR 3.50 Beta 5 x64 Shell Extension Patcher. 

Simply download the zip file, extract it into the folder that you've installed WinRAR, and run RarExtPatch.exe.  RarExtPatch.exe will kill any of the "stuck" RarExtLoader.exe's, it will then patch it, and add in three missing registry keys.  Here's a sample output:

* WinRAR 3.5b5 Shell Extensions Fix
* Created by Rafael (http://www.extended64.com/blogs/Rafael)

* Committing crime against stuck processes...

Killing process ID: 1600
Killing process ID: 184
2 processes killed

* Patching b0rk3d loader...
* Filling executable with sugar-coated 0s...
* Merging registry key/values...
* Done! Strike down upon any key to exit!

And there you have it - no messy file copying or hex editing.  I'd like to thank Rafael for staying up with me until 2AM to get this working good ;-).
