There is a potential problem here if you need to write data to this folder and your app is installed in the Program Files folder. Under XP (and Win 2000 ??), a "plain user" doesn't have sufficient rights to write to the Program Files directory. Of course, such a user can't install the application in that location to start with. But if the machine Adminstrator (Sys Admin, big sister, etc.) installs the app with the intention that other users can run it, things could get messy. Also, if multiple users are using the app, and you want to save user settings, you need to keep user settings separate. That's why those Application Data folders are provided.
