The freebie version of AdAware doesn't, but you might be thinking of
Spybot's teatimer, which does exactly that and is more a PITA than
anything else. Having said that, you're *prompted* for every registry
change so I doubt that is the issue, but like Jim I do believe it is
registry related.
Bruce, is your Vista 64-bit? If it is then you can probably give up now!
Else, go to "Manage Plugins" in IE7 and check if Silverlight is enabled.
If not manually do so and your problem should be solved. If it is
already enabled check for the existence of the following registry keys:
HKLM, SOFTWARE\Classes\Typelib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8
HKLM,
SOFTWARE\Classes\Typelib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8.5.0
and delete them. If they don't exist, then go to both
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AgControl.AgControl and
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AgControl.AgControl.1.0
and set the permissions on 'everyone' to full control and see if that works.
