My mistake after all. I wasn't thinking straight (does slight fever 
count as an excuse?). The var should be WCHAR *. I see it now - since 
the buffer was written to using RegQueryValueEx, and therefore required 
a cast to LPBYTE, I didn't catch this error. That is part of the reason 
Strastroup says casts are evil....

Do you want an official patch, or will you just remove the "const"?
