VB Script Delete Profiles not working Windows 7

I have a VB Script that I am using Kbox to run and it will not work with Windows 7. I run it manually with XP and it works great. Windows 7 will not work.

SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileListThe first thing that came to my mind is that there is a new structure to the registry in Windows Vista and Windows 7.

There's also the issue of UAC to take account of.

Lastly, please use the CODE tags when posting code or other lengthy text.
