		<description><![CDATA[Along with Vista&#8217;s UAC security infrastructure Microsoft implemented something very clever, but has caused administrators and Perl coders frustration: User File and Registry Virtualization. The concept of UAC (http://www.roth.net/blog/index.php/2007/04/02/vista-and-user-account-control-uac/) Â is useful since it places finer control over what non-administrators can and cannot do. One of the core tenets of UAC is that a non-administrator should [...]]]></description>

When 64 bit applications access the registry they do so directly, as you would expect. However if a 32 bit application access the registry it is mapped into a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the annoyances that Win32 Perl bothers me with is the lack of traversing the PATH. There are some&#160;Win32 specific functions built in such as Win32::GetFullPathName() and Win32::ExpandEnvironmentStrings() which are very useful when dealing with Windows&#8217; paths, but suck when dealing with a PATH relative file.For example, if you have a path like &#34;rundll32.exe&#34; [...]]]></description>
