I think he was actually referring to using INI files in general. If not, then definitely use the registry. windows.ini is obsolete.
If you mean just using INI files in general, don't do that either. You could write your own parser and stuff, or find one online, but really, INI files are getting to be antiquated (at least in my opinion). Use XML files for configuration instead. There are libraries (like TinyXML) that will do most of the hard stuff for you.

imho, registry is a piece of nonportable crap, and you should make a wrapper for it.
Using xml to store everything is also bad idea(imho).It makes things look "omg,professional" but it's not always necessary (and i personally hate *ml sintax).
It's best to make your own/use something else.
