Yup, you'd think the path would be a simple thing to change/find
in XP but they buried it well!

However, BWave has never liked to be installed unless it found the
archivers in the path. I learnt a long time ago to make 1 dir
called compress, stick it in the path, and then put every archiver
I could find into that dir, before I added anything else! :)
