Something else to consider is if the file is in one of the areas that=B4s p=
rotected by UAC (like Program Files) it may not be where you think it is.  =
It might be in your windows virtual store... so java looks for it in Progra=
m Files/mysoftware but does not find it there because in reality it resides=
 in \Users\myuserid\AppData\Local\Virtualstore\Program Files\mysoftware...

You might try logging in as a different user and seeing where the file trul=
y resides.
