Mike & Malke,
Thanks for all the suggestions, but so far nothing. You cannot take take
ownership of the key even with administrative privileges, it still says
access denied. Haven't tried ERD Commander yet and I'd really like to do
this without 3rd. party help it possible. If a rouge program can write to
that branch then there's got to be away for me to as well. I'm missing
something somewhere, just need to find out what. It's late so I won't fool
with this again until sometime Sunday afternoon, but will be back if I find
something and to read any other thought's you may have.

All the best,
