Other thing to keep in mind on Vista is that you can't have files which
user needs write access under the "Program Files" folder - if you did do
this on XP then move all these files go e.g. "appdata" or
"drive:/yourapp" or something similar.

Might also be a good time to think of upgrading to e.g. FB 2.x.
