Using $drive here was confusing to a user that e-mailed me. This is almost always going to be C:, right? In the few cases where it isn't, I think people will be just as likely to find it if we say C: instead of $drive.

Also, the Application Data folder is hidden. This can be confusing for users trying to find that directory.

    Q: Where does gaim store its logs?
    A: On unix, they are in <code>~/.gaim/logs</code>, on win32 they are in the
    -<code>$drive\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\.gaim\logs</code>
    -directory. In either case, new logs (new as of 0.73) are in subdirectories
    -that correspond to protocol/yourscreenname/theirscreenname.
    +<code>C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\.gaim\logs</code>
    +directory. (NOTE: <code>Application Data</code> is a hidden directory.) In
    +either case, new logs (new as of 0.73) are in subdirectories that correspond to
    +protocol/yourscreenname/theirscreenname.
    Q: How can I see my own status with Gaim?
