Reading / loading the data of all programs that reside on a computer at startup is overkill, particularly those programs of which one knows, even at the time they are being installed, that they will only be used a few times (or even only once) a year. Perhaps there should be two registries, the regular one and one for seldom used programs (a decision the user should take at installation time) which is only loaded when one of those programs is started. -- Best Wishes, Mark using The Bat! 4.2.33.1 Beta 33 days remaining in 2010.
