Default ".limewire" folder location problem

does anybody know why limewire was programmed to place the what looks like the user configuration data ".limewire" folder in a location relative to the desktop location?

i had a different path for the desktop location on all my computers and limewire keeps putting the ".limewire" folder in the desktops parent folder.. which would be the correct folder if my paths were the default paths. why in the world wouldnt the folder be placed according to the "%userprofile%" path itself instead of a less significant folder "%userprofile%/desktop"... it makes no sense..

thats like if u wanted your bike in the garage and told somebody to make sure its next to the car cause u know the car is normally always in the garage and then one day for some reason u parked outside and so thats where the idiot left the bike cause u never told him u wanted it in the garage u just said next to the car.. haha.. there now that should clearly explain my problem.. i hope u understand it

so as of right now in order to keep using limewire i have all my desktop paths on all my computers set back to the default.. and i dont want that... so if anybody that knows a lot about this or any limewire developers can help me ide appreciate it..

thanx
