That ICE has been much discussed. Your choices are: 1. Ignore it - if you're using an all users install it's completely bogus, and putting a key in HKCU for ALLUSERS=1 is incorrect (since it gets left behind if the user uninstalling is different to the user installing). 2. Stick a key in HKCU somewhere to shut it up.. it'll leave keys around but it'll pass validation. I'm not sure what the deal is with HKCU even for ALLUSERS=0 but there's probably a reason for it...
