I have had repeated success putting lots and lots of stuff in folders directly under C:\ ... on heavily locked down school computers.

I don't believe Windows has ever had a problem with it -- C:\ is nothing special, it's just where important, UAC-protected folders like "Program Files" and "WINDOWS" go.

I sort of had the impression (probably an assumption) that that was officially how you are supposed to share files between users. It is somewhat difficult from what I remember to give another user read/write privileges to a folder in your home directory.
