The ModInstallPath key points to the location where third-party Mods
should be installed for the current user.  If you want to find
Counter-Strike, you could back up one level and check for a folder
called "counter-strike".

"counter-strike"
"day of defeat"
"deathmatch classic"
"dedicated server"
"half-life"
"ricochet"
"team fortress classic"

Can this key be used to reliably find VALVe Steam Mods, e.g. CS?
That would be interesting for addons and bots. What we currently do is
using this key and going two directory levels up from it's value to find
the directory for the Steam accounts. I was just wondering if this is a
safe method.

Thanks,
Florian
