 > In my opinion, the solution to this issue is to have the Interprocess
 library write its files to the '''%TEMP% directory''' of whichever user
 account is executing the library. This directory should always allow the
 user Full Control.

 This is not a good idea AFAIK: the folder has to be the same for everyone
 on the system since its needed to provide interprocess communication
 (between ALL processes). %TEMP% might be different for different users,
 especially for services started as "Local Service".
