Summary: Win32: scummvm.ini in %windir%

Initial Comment:
The current installer is buggy with Windows95/98/ME. 
And with Windows3295/98/ME ScummVM itself is useless 
because you're able to play native ;-)

Bugs:
=====
*) no link in startmenu for other users
*) installer puts the scummvm.ini to %windir%. 
=> non-admin user hasn't/should not have the right to 
write into the config (see FAQ 4.13)


Fix:
====
*) create folder %AllUser%\Startmenu\Programs\ScummVM
*) move News.lnk, Readme.lnk & ScummVM.lnk into the 
created directory
*) change ScummVM.lnk properties and set the command 
line to 
{scummvm_path}\scummvm.exe -c"%APPDATA%\scummvm.ini"
