Scott,
Note that Vista does not allow users to WRITE to any file in the
C:\Program Files\ tree. Vista will virtualize any user file in
the C:\Program Files\ tree into the "<username>\APPDATA" tree.
I have installed all of my amateur software on a separate hard drive
which avoids the issues with Vista's virtualization but Vista users
will need to be aware of the potential problem of files not being
written as expected.
