Hope this isn't OT, but where in the registry to I find the value that

I think it's HLCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Internet
Settings, the Default string. Is this right? If so, what would the value

be
set to?

; Setting for the OS as a whole:
[HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"Check_Associations"="yes"
; "Check_Associations"="no"

; Setting for Current(ly Logged in Active) User:
; ( this should override the above one )
[HKey_Current_User\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"Check_Associations"="yes"
; "Check_Associations"="no"

; There needs to be an empty line below this one.
