On Windows, this method returns the application's directory.  IMO, this is 
wrong 
since its customary to install applications in the Program Files directory and 
with tighter locked down XP/2000 and DEFINITELY Vista, this is a problem since 
you are not usually given permission to write in these destinations now.

I think the GetSpecialDir method should be called (as it is with when the 
"Global" flag is false) with parameter CSIDL_COMMON_DOCUMENTS.
