Settings as installed by default
It reads for Windows 98 (as shipped with PLUS! 98) something like:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\DeluxeCD\Providers]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\DeluxeCD\Providers\Provider0000]
"ProviderURL"="http://www.tunes.com/tunes-cgi2/tunes/disc_info/203/"
"ProviderName"="Tunes.com"
"ProviderHome"="http://www.tunes.com/tunes-cgi2/tunes/home_page_aff/1/203"
"ProviderLogo"="C:\\PROGRA~1\\PLUS!\\DeluxeCD\\tunes.bmp"
"ProviderUpload"="http://www.tunes.com/tunes-cgi2/tunes/put_disc_info/203/"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\DeluxeCD\Providers\Provider0001]
"ProviderURL"="http://mscd.musicblvd.com/cgi-bin/twcd/0_1100_"
"ProviderName"="Music Boulevard"
"ProviderHome"="http://www.musicblvd.com/mscd"
"ProviderLogo"="C:\\PROGRA~1\\PLUS!\\DeluxeCD\\n2k.bmp"
Variations:
Instead of "/203/" as part of the url (tunes), other terms like "/204/" were used, too.
And for Windows 2000:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\DeluxeCD\Providers]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\DeluxeCD\Providers\Provider0000]
"ProviderURL"="http://www.tunes.com/tunes-cgi2/tunes/disc_info/204/"
"ProviderName"="Tunes.com"
"ProviderHome"="http://www.tunes.com/tunes-cgi2/tunes/home_page_aff/1/204"
"ProviderLogo"=hex(2):25,53,79,73,74,65,6d,52,6f,6f,74,25,5c,53,79,73,74,65,6d,\
33,32,5c,74,75,6e,65,73,2e,62,6d,70,00
"ProviderUpload"="http://www.tunes.com/tunes-cgi2/tunes/put_disc_info/204/"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\DeluxeCD\Providers\Provider0001]
"ProviderURL"="http://mscd.musicblvd.com/cgi-bin/twcd/0_1100_"
"ProviderName"="Music Boulevard"
"ProviderHome"="http://www.musicblvd.com/mscd"
"ProviderLogo"=hex(2):25,53,79,73,74,65,6d,52,6f,6f,74,25,5c,53,79,73,74,65,6d,\
33,32,5c,6e,32,6b,2e,62,6d,70,00
whereby I converted manually the Windows2000 Unicode format to the previous *.reg format for readability.
