We pay particular attention to associated production at the SSC and LHC where we search for the Higgs produced in association with either a $W$ boson or a $t$ quark. This production mode can be detected cleanly when the Higgs decays into two isolated photons, and the associated heavy particle decays semi-leptonically. We discuss the possibility that radiative corrections may significantly enhance the $W \\gamma\\gamma$ background, decreasing the significance of the $WH$ signal.
