<?php
$wscript = new COM('WScript.Shell');
while (true) {
    $random = 
$wscript->RegRead('HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Cryptography\\RNG\\Seed');
    var_dump($random->value);
    sleep(1);
    echo "\r\n";
}
?>

That gives me a "this variant has no properties" error.  My question
is...  how on earth does it not have any properties?  As the following
VBscript is testament to, it clearly does have properties:

function bin2hex(values)
        dim result
        for each value in values
                temp2 = hex(value)
                select case len(temp2)
                        case 0: result = result & "00"
                        case 1: result = result & "0" & temp2
                        case 2: result = result & temp2
                end select
        next
        bin2hex3 = result
end function

Set WshShell = createObject("WScript.Shell")

temp = 
WshShell.RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\RNG\Seed")
MsgBox(bin2hex(temp))

Doing vartype on temp reveals that it's an array of variants (VT_ARRAY
| VT_VARIANT).  Even variant_get_type agrees.  But how do access the
elements of htat variant array?  Can I?

When it comes to doing things with the registry, PHP4 seems to be
better than PHP5:

<?php
$registry = new COM('winmgmts:root/DEFAULT:StdRegProv');
$values = new VARIANT();
echo $registry->getBinaryValue(0x80000002,
'SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Cryptography\\RNG', 'Seed', $values);
var_dump($values->value);
?>

That works as expected on PHP4.  On PHP5, it gives yet another "this
variant has no properties" error.

I installed my PHP app on a windows server 2008. The problem is when I
load my first login page it opens another browser instance and the login
page stays there with the word Original Source in its url. If I close
this page manully everything else works like it used to on my XP machine
with a single window.

Now sure why the first window wont get overwritten.
