Default Best place to store information in the registry

I store all of the user information, including regname and regcode, in the Current_User registry hive. It occured to me today that only the user that installed the application and only the user that registered the application will have access to it. My license is per user, not per computer. Does this cause a problem? Should I allow every user on the system access to the software but not registration if only one user has registered it?

What do you guys do?

I do not see any kind of problem with storing the info there if your license agreement is per user. If it were per computer I would suggest storing it in the local computer hive or in a file of some sort.
