Er, do you mean ActivePython 2.4.3.12?

I don't have any experience with using _winreg on remote machines and 
don't have the ability to test that here. Are you sure that the Access 
denied error is because of the file name and not because of a lack of 
SeBackupPriviledge as is mentioned as being required in the docs?

You could try asking on python-win32@[...].org. More Windows Python 
programmers hang out there.
