Default Re: HELP! VISTA SUCKS!

I found a reference by Sir_Dr_D that the saved games for purchase/installed Vista is in
C:\Users\{profile name}\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\dominions3\savedgames

The actual game directory is protected admin territory and each users files are in a different directory such as was mentioned. So.. (Im just guessing) that the mods maybe should be in
C:\Users\{profile name}\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\dominions3\mods

That makes sense to me because I have pretty much the same security (and headaches) on linux and 2k. Vista is just trying to enforce the new security standards of splitting admin for the program, and user files for the data.
