hey i need to modify some registry entries, essentially i am trying to make an app portable that makes a registry entry.
how do I use C++ do delete a registry entry?
I am sort of changing the question now, how do the portable apps here deal with the registry(like firefox, 7-zip), how do you keep things from popping up in the registry

here is the code

Name RegBinExample
OutFile test2.exe
ShowInstDetails show
LicenseData "lic.txt"
;=== Runtime Switches
SetCompress Auto
SetCompressor /SOLID lzma
SetCompressorDictSize 32
SetDatablockOptimize On
CRCCheck on

kindof an odd thing to be asking but does anyone know where i can get a copy of Sega Smash Pack (Volume 2)? or do you have a copy? i used to be obsessed about it but whenever i serch it with any search engne, all i get is stuff about smash pack 1.

i loved this when it came out so if you could point me in a direction....

BTW, i used google, live search, altavista, and yahoo.

Which is Better ?

Ok so I am looking at PuTTY, FileZilla, FireFtp, and SCP. What I want to do is just transfer small files from one computer to a server, nothing really serous... Ok, mabie experment with a litte FTP to get my feet wet. So, which one of the 4 would be the best without having too much (as in features I will never use) with some decent security.

I-FLAPP

There is a new company called I-FLAPP ( google it ) who are offering a new USB drive system which claims to be able to run microsoft windows apps from the USB drive. I made the mistake of purchasing this and have been unable to install anything at all to the drive. Needless to say the support and FAQ is very poor.
If anyone has had a better experience with this I would like to hear about it.

K. I get a computer froma friend. Nice computer. Great computer 512 mg ram, 3.06 ghz processor, 160 hardrive- I set it up, get everything going,- BAM- the power core fails. Okay. Great, call hp, they send me a new one, overnight.

Install it- the instructions suck, but who cares? Its installed, it reuns fine.

At the end of the warranty period, it stops working. No customer care, pay us money to fix it (to the tune of 100 dollars.) Its summer, I'm not working can't afford it. Fine. Whatever.
