Simple question, I hope. In php, how can I disable com_dotnet. It’s showing up in phpinfo(); I’m running PHP Version 5.3.14 through Zend/Apache on Windows 7 Enterprise. In the php.ini file I see an item for com.allow_dcom = true, but it’s commented out.

PHP had a bug in the past that the COM Extension could not be build as a shared extension. This has been fixed recently. The issue is: Bug #62146 com_dotnet cannot be built shared.
So if you install PHP 5.3.15 you can disable it by not loading the .dll extension file. This is also outlined in the user-comments on COM Installation.
If you can not upgrade PHP then you will see the bug and you can not disable the extension.
