    Interesting Registry Stuff (Keys, Values, etc.)

    Does anyone know of any interesting registry things for the system and various apps? Example: I found a value for internet explorer that let you change the build and version in the about dialog. I want these because im currently writing a configuration app...

    I cannot recommend screwing around in the registry, it can cause
    soooo many trouble.

    Yeah, But people making software don't assume people
    wandering around in the registry, So they place very crucial
    info there (cd-keys,config etc.)
