Really? Because the getting started guide says it's going to put it in:

C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_53_0\lib\

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_53_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#install-visual-studio-binaries

also:

The path to the boost root directory (often C:\Program

documentation and mailing lists .
