Actually, Program Files never was the right place for configuration (or any other kind of volatile data) - even Windows NT 4 (released in 1996) did not let non-admin users write there. The only thing that Vista changed is that all programs by default run as if a limited user was running them, precisely to force programmers to start writing their software properly (UAC was never meant to be a security feature). -- < Jernej Simončič ><><><><>< http://eternallybored.org/ > A bird in the hand is safer than one overhead. -- Newton's Little-known Seventh Law ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
