Eric, Re: dll's just get overwritten during upgrades, vendors toss the mess into the windows/system directory instead of a tool directory. It's a mess.

This is all Microsoft's fault. Even the DLL is put into
seperate directories(which Microsoft itself does not do),
if a function is loaded in, there is a chance that Microsoft's
loading mechanism may get confused and used the existing
one in memory even it is an old version which is not what
you want. This is an OS issue, not simply vendor issue unless
DLL is not used at all.
