--why do certain companies insist of branding their name across multiple subfolders
(ie Adobe) c:\program files\adobe\acrobat\acrobat 8.0\acrobat.exe  gimme a break

Nothing annoys me more than when I go to the start menu looking to run a game and realise that I need to know who published it just to find the shortcut.

That's a bit annoying indeed, should simply go into a "games" folder instead.

In the case of other kinds of software and their install-on-disk location, some subfolders at least for program version is good, though; sometimes you need multiple versions of something installed.
