Launch RSS Bandit as a non-admin user.

You will be prompted with a dialog asking whether or not
you want RSS Bandit.

Click "OK"

You will receive the following error:
System report this error on attempt to set the default
Aggregator:

'Access to the registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\feed
is denied.'

Also note the poor grammer and lack of sentence casing
in the error message.

I think it is trying to tell me:

The system reported an error while attempting to set
the default aggregator:

    Yes, right: this can only be done by an administrative
    account, but need to set only once. Further that is not a
    requirement to run RSS Bandit the normal way: what you will
    missing is the ability to Right-Click within any IE instance and
    select on a feed link "Subscribe in default aggregator" from
    the context menu.

    We will change any spelling, if wrong. But cannot do much at
    this time to prevent it overall. Especially for an Security
    exception you will now get a more detailed message and
    some hints what to apply to make it run (was yet in the
    current code base, but not for build 117).

    Thanks for the report.

    Perhaps you could fail over to
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\feed

    The intall could set the value globally, and each user could
    answer this question for themselves.
