    I wouldn't expect the duplicated "Documents and Settings" in the path.
     
    C:\D & S\MYNAME\Application Data\WOLips would be what I would expect.

    		It was created at C:\Documents and
Settings\MYNAME\Documents and
Settings\AppData\Local\WOLips\wobuild.properties - a rather non-standard
location!

    	Small bug in the lookup method:
	this.wolipsPropertiesFile = new
File(System.getProperty("user.home"), "Documents and
Settings/Application Data/WOLips/" +
WOVariables.WOLIPS_PROPERTIES_FILE_NAME);
	if (!isValidWOlipsPropertiesFile()) {
	this.wolipsPropertiesFile = new
File(System.getProperty("user.home"), "Documents and
Settings/AppData/Local/WOLips/" +
WOVariables.WOLIPS_PROPERTIES_FILE_NAME);
	}
	
	
	Because it doesn't exist yet, it's considered invalid and then
goes to the next one down ... Those ARE, by the way, standard Windows
locations for application data :)

    	It's also wolips.properties now instead of wobuild.properties,
for what it's worth.
