I have an IE add-in that I can't get to load.  My program tries to write the
registry key under
SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Browser Helper
Objects\\ as it should but on Vista it returns an ACCESS_DENIED response and
does not create the key.  I know on less secure instances of Vista, this
works fine.  Does anyone know an alternate method to register a IE add-in
that will work when Vista is in its secure mode (the default mode)?  Thanks.

Looks like I have to let the install program do this.  It is not ideal but
it will work for now.
