English Windows XP SP2 running with danish charset and keyboard 
settings. (But still c:\program files and c:\documents and settings etc.)

But the IzPack installer oddly enough suggests the default installation 
path as "C:\Programmer\IzPack". I don't know where that comes from - the 
string "programmer" is nowhere to be found in my entire registry except 
for some charset names.
