I am not doing web development at the moment & don't have IIs running but
from what I recall, IIs processes runs as user IIS_UNKNOWN (or something).
Try opening up the User manager on the web server machine & giving that user
Admin rights. Your DLL should be able to read then. ONly problem of course
is what to do on a live machine (IIS having registry rights is a bad thing).
Do you really need to access the registry?

Not sure what you are trying to do here but AFAIK you don't need a path -
the current directory will always be the one from which the DLL is run
from...
