"Program Files" isn't hardcoded either, like on my German locale
its "Programme".


Which would be done as %PROGRAMFILES%, anyways, not %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files

really "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files\Internet Explorer", right?  I
don't really feel sorry for apps that assume everything is running
from C:



Actually, in setupapi it's:

DIRID_PROGRAM_FILES,"Internet Explorer",iexplore.exe

but I didn't think anyone would nitpick an obvious example, so I
didn't spell it out the first time around.

c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer is where iexplore.exe is put in XP,
so I think we should mimic that.  It wouldn't be hard to add that to
wine.inf:[FakeDllsSection].
