Jump to the end to see how I got it working

I just installed StokerLog on Mac Book Pro (late 2008) with Windows 7 RC 64 bit loaded under bootcamp.
.NET 3.5.1 was enabled from Windows Features panel. I figure this is fairly bleeding edge as environments go...
==============================
Here was my FIRST experience
==============================
1. Install options: Just me
2. Accepted User Account Control prompt
3. Run windows update to pick up .NET updates - none found
4. Ran Stokerlog - it came up fine.
5. Ran simulator mode
6. Selected "Simulate Input"
7. Unhandled exception thrown -- cannot access 'C/program files (x86)\AmirMsoftware/stokerlog\stokerlogtxt.'

===========================================
Here was my SECOND (successful) experience
===========================================
1. I opened the StokerLog shortcut properties
2. Under the Compatability tab, I set the Privilege Level to run this program as an administrator.
3. Ran Stokerlog - it came up fine.
4. Ran simulator mode
5. Selected "Simulate Input"
6. VOILA, everything appears to be working properly.
So it is a permission problem
=================================
Here is my THIRD experience
=================================
1. I opened the StokerLog shortcut properties and returned the privilege level to normal (dont run as an administrator).
2. I opened the Properties of two files in C:\Program Files (x86)\AmirM Software\StokerLog\ ... telnet_input.txt and StokerLog.txt ... went to their Security tab, selected EDIT, selected Users, selected Modify, then OK, and OK again
3. Ran simulator mode
4. Selected "Simulate Input"
5. VOILA, everything appears to be working properly - and I only had to change the permissions of a few files, not the whole application.
So the workaround is to ensure StokerLog can open these files - either by giving StokerLog Administrator privleges or by allowing all users to modify, read, edit, or write the files it needed.
