  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:=20
