There is nothing in Java that will do this directly, so you will have 
to resort to some sort of native code.  That means either linking to a 
DLL library using the Java Native Interface, or running an external 
program that can handle your registry queries / updates using the 
Runtime exec() method.

I have heard of one library that has done this already, but I suspect 
that there are others:
