If you try to create a native C++ Smart Device project, you would have repeatedly try to finish the ‘New Project’ dialog but wouldn’t have been able to get it to work.
This problem is due to the New Project dialog not playing nice with the changes in Internet Explorer 7 (the New Project dialog for native projects is actually a glorified web browser control).
The workaround is simple - Open the registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\PreApproved
Add a new entry and name it
{D245F352-3F45-4516-B1E6-04608DA126CC}
Again this is something we have fixed for Visual Studio 2005 SP1.

Update 11/13/2006 2:50PM: Note: this did not work for me. I am currently installing the Visual Studio 2005 SP1 Beta release; hopefully this fixes the problem as well.
Update 11/13/2006 6:50PM: VS2005 SP1 Beta works!

I've asked the right folks on my team to look into this issue and see why this isn't working for you.
Can you send a screenshot of what's showing up (if you're getting an error dialog) to sriramk at microsoft.com?
Thanks,
