I'm using Windows XP Professional SP3. I tried to install it both under 
'All Users' and 'Just for me', neither worked. The user account I was 
using was not an administrator account on the system.

It also turns out the APPDATA environment variable is set, I just can't 
see it in the Control Panel->System->Advanced->Environment variables 
list, but it is in the os.environ dictionary in python.
