4.  Did you check the contents of the Run,
RunServices, RunOnce Registry keys (if the target
system is a MS platform)?

No - but I'd like a tool that can decipher the 'ntuser.dat' 
file, so we 
don't have to log on as the specific user that caused the problems. 
Does anyone known of a way of 'reading'/enumerating a users own 
registryfile (HKCU)? There is supposedly a driver for Linux, to mount 
the registryfile - and browse everything like a directory. But that 
seems to be like crossing the river for water...

Assuming the user has previously logged on the machine, the entire user
registry profile will be stored under HKLU, and listed by the user's SID.
