I’ll try to recreate the problem in work today and send it your way.  
in the mean time, i have a messy little thing that works. The version  
I have in work is actually kind of friendly, with method and variable  
names a non-programmer won’t puke at.

Still, I tried win32-registry first, and it would have been my  
preferred thingie. 😉
