This approach is Ok, for shareware and adware, whose main purpose is to hide. Let's say you decide to remove some apps or games. Then all files in sysdir will remain occupying space and filesys entries.

Applications must keep their directories organized well. Not all ppl see only the start menu and setup.exe.

This is one more example of the assumption that everybody uses WinXP and not Win98, where there were no limited accounts and therefore no problems writing in any dir. And if I am the only user of my XP comp and don't browse xxx,crack,scam sites [which install WhenU, clocksync etc] with MSIE, then there is no purpose to be Limited.
