	Forgive me -- I've not checked recently (I'm usually trying to kill
things that set up auto-run stuff)...

	Are there any equivalent registry entries in the /user/ hive rather
than the system hive? (Appears to be since I found this in regedt32:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"ctfmon.exe"="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ctfmon.exe"
"AdobeBridge"=""
"WMPNSCFG"="C:\\Program Files\\Windows Media Player\\WMPNSCFG.exe"
"H/PC Connection Agent"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft
ActiveSync\\wcescomm.exe\""
)

	Or can you plant a script into the userprofile startup directory?
