[WT-support] Emergency - cannot create IARU log files

[Stewart GM4AFF]

Csaba,
If it's not in My Documents\Win-Test then in XP it may be in:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Win-Test
or
C:\Program Files\Win-Test

...but folder may be hidden.

I've just found out that (on a vista machine) there is a place for this
case:
C:\Users\xyz\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Win-Test\
We will check it out whether XP has the same.

73!
