I implemented the check for a PS viewer:
I tested it for the registry combinations
a=acrodist + b=gsview32
a=gsview32 + b=acrodist
a=acrodist + b=
a=gsview32 + a=

Before I do so, perhaps you might look at SearchMinSYS which uses a loop 
to iterate over the elements in the registry. Would such a strategy not 
simplify your code too?

Not really. A loop seems to be simpler, but as I run it (conditionally) 
only twice, and need two different sets of variables for every run, and 
have to check for the four cases above, the code isn't finally shorter. 
So I mean you can apply this as I send it.
But feel free to implement it as loop anyway, but I can first test it in 
a few days.
