There is no documentation in the Windows help regarding DLLHOST.EXE (at
least none that I can find). Nor does there appear to be any help when I use
/? or -? switches. How is this utility used? I understand that basically we
run this software (somehow) and magically a DLL server appears and its
security may be tweaked. Is there a way to do this programmatically perhaps
so we don't have to tinker with the DLL in any extracurricular sense?
