    There are scriping ways to modify the registry if you have a little
programming knowledge.  Otherwise, I'll have to write up a little something
to make it happen.

    To add a folder to the Program Folder for All Users, just use the:

    <COMMON_PROGRAMS>

    Virtual Folder.  <PROGRAMS> represents the Program Files for the
current user, and <COMMON_PROGRAMS> is the Program Files for all users.
