I cloned the registry settings from HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.svg\shellex to 
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.svgz\shellex and it looks like it's rendering just fine now.

So it might be a very small/simple update to the installer.

Per SVG 1.1, conforming viewers will display .svgz images as well as .svg. So 
this really shouldn't be considered simply an enhancement request.

Regardless, as "jacobmr...@gmail.com" said, the fix is to copy the "shellex" 
key under HKCR\.svg to HKCR\.svfz. The attached registry file will do just 
that, as well as setting the Content Type for .svgz files to "image/svg+xml", 
the same as .svg files.

(Note: I had to convert this file to ASCII for it to display correctly.  Be 
aware that newer versions of Windows require .reg files to be Unicode!)

Thanks for the registry file!

I will add these to the DLL registration process.
