(Steve Johnson beat me to it but... oh well)

ATL (which the _Module class is a part of) relies in part on the ATL Registrar service to insert the information into the registry.

This ATL Registrar service is embodied by this dll: ATL.DLL.

This dll (I don't think) doesn't get installed on Win98 by default (If I remember correctly. I know it was never installed in win95).

ATL.DLL is a redistributable component. And two flavors should be found on any system with DevStudio installed. One for ANSI, one for Unicode.

The ANSI version needs to be deployed to the 9x/ME os'es, and the Unicode version can be deployed to the NT os'es.

You can also compile your DLL to include the Registrar statically. Consult MSDN about _ATL_STATIC_REGISTRY.
