I can't take this anymore, how do you disable FFDShow?

This stupid thing is said to be why software is crashing, and it's driving me nuts! How do I deactivate it?
All my haters:I'm awesome, and you're just jealous and biased elitists. Fuck you very much.
And I still say CASSHERN SINS SUCKS ASS!!!!

Uh... ffdshow isn't really doing any harm by itself, it's what lets your pc read your files. Care expanding a bit? Which software is crashing, to be precise?

A) Don't use old versions of ffdshow - use the newer builds from here (preferably the Newest entry or the latest of clsid's generic SVN builds, whichever is more relevant):
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/files/

B) If you are using a new version of ffdshow:
  • Take explorer.exe out of the DirectShow control allow list, and/or put it on the blacklist.
  • Turn off thumbnailing completely.
