Thanks for the help. The other link got me through regedit using this link http://forums.techarena.in/vista-help/1075752.htm#post4093603 but I still had issues getting the correct driver through vista. even after deleting the regedit keys. I did get it to work, sort of by accident though. I went to try out the beta for pdanet and alot of it was automatic, including the driver I needed for vista. So, after that installation, I deleted the windows driver again, redeleted the regedit stuff, and plugged my phone back in. pdanet had done the setup and it ended up installing the correct driver. Anyway, I double checked to see if tetherbot worked now in firefox and bingo! So thanks again for your help. and sorry I didn't read on, waste your time at all.
