Kent,

Just an FYI that you may want to be careful if you're filling the registry with entries.
(not sure if you are or not), just saying you don't want to fill it without some type of cleanup
routine in place as well.

You could expand on this with stuff like NET VIEW and/or ADSI/WMI just like those programs that
cost money do. I guess you just need to define specifically what all it is you're interested in
monitoring/controlling. Then taking the time to write the script.
