I'm working on a test app that I hope wil shine some light on how
windows gets the Name and TypeName values back in the registry after
they've been deleted.  The problem is that the only instance of the
Name and TypeName data is in the DllRegisterServer function of the
provider dll.  I couldn't think of any other way to get to that data
to get it in the registry, but I will be testing this in windows. 
What im thinking is that windows might not even delete the key at all.
 If you have any suggestions it would help a lot.
