Microsoft has altered the default registry permissions between Windows/NT v4 and Windows 2000. The HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry hive now defaults to being read-only if you are logged-in with only User-level rights. As Jaws PDF Creator configurations are system-wide, they are stored in this area of the registry. If this is a problem, you may need to contact your local system administrator stating that write access to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JawsSystems registry key (and all subkeys) is required.
