  1. This trick is misleading and does nothing for Google Talk. It changes the default location of the Windows Documents folder, not the Google Talk folder, which is probably something the user does not want to do.

  3. This is also useful if you need to get crap off your main partition and onto another partition. So you can free up space for windows updates or more programs or whatever. And that way, when people send you 200MB files (>.<") they don't fill up the space you need for libraries and codecs.
