What has your question got to do with 'VBScript', as per your 'Subject' line? Anyway...
The HKCU stuff is almost certainly written after the app launches. Anything which the MSI doesn't write will obviously remain after uninstallation (how would it know about those entries, in order to uninstall them?) As ever, if you know an application is going to write stuff into HKCU, you may want to capture that as part of your package. As it is, just run the app, export the relevant data to a .REG and then import that .REG into your project.

What you *should* have done is to re-capture the entire install but this time include a run of the application. Only after you have closed down the player should you then run the 'After' segment of the capture process. Don't forget that you'll need to remove the InstallShield junk, if you don't already have it included in your exclusion list.
