This will also avoid issues with Windows' User Account Control and the
restrictions on writing data files in the "C:\Program Files" tree.

I recently reinstalled Windows 7/64 and performed a fresh install of
WriteLog and MMTTY ... they went into separate directories and MMTTY
was installed using the WriteLog "Legacy Installer" and everything
loaded/ran without an issue.
