Unable to read remote registry

Question

Trying to read registry keys remotly (from a host on local intranet)...

• All the permissions are set in local + remote machines..

• Also, the remote registry service is running on both machines..

• Still i get unauthorized access exception (and sometimes handle is invalid error) when trying from .net code (both frameworks tried: v4.0/v3.5-sp1).

Any ideas?? Help is appreciated..

It was an issue with my antivirus program. After I disabled it, everything works fine.
