I'm not really sure what the best recommendation is. I do know that the
whole HKLM/System registry key grants local machine users only read access
by default, whereas Administrators have Full Control. Changing ASPNET's
group to Administrators would probably work. You could also manually grant
ASPNET Full Control of the HKLM/System registry key (or even just the
System/Services/EventLog key) in the registry itself.

Personally I think the installers are pretty easy and a good thing to know
how to do. It also makes the app more portable to other servers and will
probably be faster in the long run. Your choice though. You wouldn't even
need to install the web app itself if you didn't want to.
