09 March 07 02:28 AM | tristank | 0 Comments   
Raymond beats me to the punch (mine was going to be rant-i-er, but five times * as funny), on how the HKEY_USERS\.Default , despite having the word "Default" in the key name, isn't "The Default User" from which all others are initially spawned. It's possibly Read More...
