Vista - WScript, HTAs, and Vista/7

Have people run into problems with
WScript on Vista/7? I haven't used those
systems very much, but recently I was
writing an HTA that used WScript.Shell
to write values to HKCU, on Win7 RC. If I use
"On Error Resume Next" I get one of those
strange messages that says the script should
be stopped because it's causing IE to run slowly.
(Also an irritating message. It doesn't actually
give one a choice. It just keeps popping up
until one agrees to stop the script.)

If I comment out the error trap I find that
the write fails with no errors. Yet when I switched
the code to use WMIs StdRegProv it worked
fine. (Permissions was not an issue.)

So I'm wondering whether Vista/7 is limiting
the usability of WSH in general, and if so, to what
extent.

quirk in the specific code I was writing. If I remember
correctly I was running as either standard admin or
"real" admin at the time. But I also find that testing
with permissions issues gets confusing quickly.

permissions do I have, and another function that returns what permissions
are required for a specified object/property/method combination.
