Search for installed browsers

[Willyboy]

Okay, so I am working on a project in school where we need to find out what browsers are installed on the computer.

What I've come up to is that:
- We need to use the register since not everyone installs on default paths
- I need some kind of function that tells me "if registrykey X = exists blahblah", right?

So, I've been trying my Google-Fu for a while now, but I can't find anything.
The knowledge on Cplusplus maybe can help me?

- Do I need to search the register, or is there an easier way?
- How do the code look like, roughly?

Thanks :)

Here is the windows system command to look into the registry: http://ss64.com/nt/reg.html only use system(...) until you are comfortable with using this command inside your code, then switch to CreateProcess(...) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682425(VS.85).aspx
