    Is Google Talk supposed to install to such a weird place in Win 7?

    I just put Google Talk on my new netbook and instead of installing to \Program Files (x86)\ it put itself in \users\ and then a bunch of other directories below that, \application data\ I think.

    Is this normal? I wasn't given any option to choose the install path.

    It is normal for any Google application.
