First step, what account are actually now running under?   I sent you
a code snippet in my previous post  to figure it out, much easier than
applying permissions to every account on your machine.

Now, as I mentioned in my previous post, the problem is not writing to
the EventLog, it is creating the EventSource.  Once this is created,
your code will work. This unfortunately requires registry access as
you have discovered.

Here are three ways around this:
1) hacking the registry:

2) creating a windows app that writes to the same event source.  This
will run under your logged-in account (with adminstrative pemissions,
of course) and create the event source
3) setting the identity in your asp.net application to your logged in
account via the web.config file, running the app and thereby creating
the event source.  Just don't forget to remove it.

<identity impersonation="true" userName="domain\username"
password="yourpassword" />
