Hi Greg.

>I not sure if that is entirely true. Using my Query tool, I can write to the LOCAL MACHINE section of the Registry. If I can't, then why does the data appear there?

Are you sure it was written there? Did you check by reading the value back from the Registry? If so, then you've been fooled by virtualization into thinking the value was written there, but in fact it wasn't. If you check with RegEdit, you'll find that the value in fact doesn't exist where you think it is but instead was virtualized to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\Machine.
