Older vrsions of Office 97 and lower required that this file be placed within other application folder locations but After Office 2000 this changed to C:\Windows\System32 as the default and master location and is as such. Microsoft finally did this to avoid the phenomena known to programmers as "DLL Hell" which is a weird phenonmena that causes the system and applications to go haywire as a result of having too many different versions of the file copied or installed to many different locations on a Windows PC.

Actually MS now recommends the opposite. MS no longer considers the CRT library files as "system" files. Look at my previous post on this thread with the MSKB reference on this issue.
