Only what I put in the previous post. I don't think Poledit is the tool
here. I think it's going to be Regedt32 because you must alter security
settings on keys, not the keys themselves. This is both a challenge and a
no brainer process. In general, there should be little risk from operations
standpoint to adding Everyone:full control to a regkey, though from a
security standpoint there would be implications if security is an issue. (it
shouldn't be).
