Not sure if this is the best method, but I read the DefaultInstance registry
key. It work for me for FB 1.5, 2.1 and 2.5:
RootKey := HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE;
Found := MyRegistry.OpenKeyReadOnly('\SOFTWARE\Firebird Project\Firebird
Server\Instances');
if not Found then
Found := MyRegistry.OpenKeyReadOnly('\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Firebird
Project\Firebird Server\Instances');
If Found then
Result := MyRegistry.ReadString('DefaultInstance');

PS. Pardon the lack of object creation, etc, I have a few sub procs hat I
merged this together from, so you get the gist
