In belatedly reading a few posts (you guys are very prolific!), I
came across this, and it begs a question...
With many of the newer systems having very strong protections, such
that areas of the computer that were once usable are now "locked", is
this location a good place to put things that the application will
need to be able to modify without running into permissions issues?
Permission locks have been a bugger to deal with, espcecially if the
user is not the admin. Would this location transcend the problemo?
