My experience with creating a guest account in XP is that Windows by default
allows to create new keys at "current user". It is the administrator that
decides thereafter if it will be blocked or not.

So I think that simply disable the registry commands if not in administrator
mode
could cause unnecessary restrictions for certain users.

Hi Fer,

Got it. This looks perfect and should not be a big deal to implement.
Thanks a lot for your useful programming tips.

fine, but is there also a way to make it sunken in disabled state like a normal
