If you've added the product via the Add/Import Product interface, and modified the "register" template as instructed, then the product is "on" and working. You can disable it without uninstalling it, or you can remove it altogether through the same Manage Products in the Admin CP.

FWIW, I installed this hack on two different vB installs, and it blocked several (and apparently all) spam bot registrations. But, on one, as a test, I enabled reCAPTCHA, and disabled Is Bot, and haven't had a spam bot successfully register since.
