Move the users profile directory from C:\Windows\Profiles\ to C:\Documents and Settings\ or C:\Users\

C:\Windows\Profile is old legacy location for crappy legacy Windows 95.

In 2000 and XP it is in C:\Documents and Settings\
In Vista it is in C:\Users\

We should consider moving it and providing symlinks in all the old places, especially when we are in "Vista mode". One possible worry is that if we provide just normal symlinks, an old app might be confused by looking in all 3 folders.
