Is there a way to detect when an addon is being disabled?

I ideally need to run some cleanup code when my addon is disabled (not uninstalled) by the user

Hi Ian,

The add-on is disabled when the Flags value of the key below is 1, 64 or 320.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Settings\<BHO Guid>\

e.g

if (dwFlag == 1 || dwFlag == 64 || dwFlag == 320)
{
// plugin is disabled
}
