Using JavaScript it is not possible to read any registry entries (no 
matter which Windows version). If you really need to read registry 
entries you'll have to use Microsofts JScript, but I'm afraid this will 
only work if the browser is IE5.x or higher (any other browser will 
simply not run the code).
For more information on this subject, you should read on at Microsofts 
MSDN webpage for JScript: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
