This is just a theory, but since Vista is supposed to be more secure,
maybe Eclipse doesn't have the "rights" to access that particular
registry entry. I recall reading that Norton and McAfee had a lot of
trouble getting access to Vista's internals...

I'm not sure why Python would though. I've also heard that if such-and-
such a program isn't installed in the correct place, it doesn't always
function correctly, so that might be the issue too.

Then again, maybe I'm just blowing smoke.
