Ted,

I think this may be another case of Windows7 taking charge of where 
program data gets stored.  You may no longer find them in the 
'Program Files' directory folders.  By default I think it assumes 
that the computer will have multiple users and it sets up individual 
data storage under each user name.  Windows 7 uses a system for 
storing data that can be confusing to those of us who first learned 
with Windows 3.  For details, see:
