Utility that records everything that is installed

I'm looking for a utility that will track everything that happens when an
application is installed. What files are written, what registry entries are
made, etc. I had such a utility many years ago, but I can't seem to find
it. I find a lot of keyloggers when I search in google, but that's not what
I'm looking for. Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Bill

Somewhat old as it has not been revised for a long time,
it was freeware but now I think you need to subscribe.

WOW that utility is from 2000 and doesn't list XP as a supported OS. I
remembered the applicaiton I was using but I the company doesn't see to make
the product any longer. It was called InstallMonitor 2.0 from Prism
Micosystems (www.prismmicrosys.com) Any other utilities??

Regmon will monitor all registry change

I still run it from time to time on my XP computers, no problems reported as
it still works.
But if you can find something newer and better go for it.
