I am running Windows 7 here at home, and my profiles are all listed under HKLM, not HKCU.  Specifically, my profiles are found at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Public Domain.
If you have profiles under HKCU, you should be able to view them without using –HKCU option, and likewise be able to delete them.  That is the intent, anyway.
The “pop-up” is a Windows thing because Blat is compiled to be a console program.  Have you considered using blat.dll with your Delphi program instead of using the standalone blat.exe?
