I navigated to it exactly 3 times before I decided my best move would be to just create a shortcut. I made the shortcut to this folder:</P> <BLOCKQUOTE> <P mce_keep="true">C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\ADMISAPI</P></BLOCKQUOTE> <P mce_keep="true">because I wanted to have the entire 12 hive automatically opened up. I put the shortcut in My Documents so its always available when I explore the hard drive.
