Writing to C: in Vista and Windows 7 requires elevated permissions so your

location to write to (one of the user folders)?
I could. On linux I would write to /tmp is there a similar concept in
windows vista and 7?
There are multiple ways of finding the temporary directory in .NET.
Are there some good docs along the lines of .NET python equivalents of
win32api.GetUserName() and others?
System.Environment.UserName
System.Environment almost certainly has the temp directory as well.
Check that or System.IO.Directory.
All the best,
