Hello,

I installed POV-Ray 3.6.0 on Windows XP, and I have the impression that 
it doesn't follow the basic guidelines for multi-user compatibility in 
WinXP, since it keeps trying to write to its installation directory. The 
resulting problems are obvious: users are forced to share their 
settings, and non-Administrators cannot even save them!

Is there a way to correct this that I have overlooked? If not, what is 
the proper way to report it to the POV-Ray developers? (The fix is 
pretty obvious: move the config files to their proper location, inside 
the user profile directory).

Thanks in advance!
