i have 64 bit vista installed and just noticed a weird issue (well not sure if its a big one or not) but trying to fiqure out why when i install 64 bit applications they install in the x86 folder and report as installed as 32 bit in the programs help section. i thoughty maybe it was this one application (the beta of mozilla's x64 firefox browser) but i installed another 64 bit application from nvidia for physx control of my video card, and that installed as 32 bit as well, what can be causing this? i did install the beta to sp2 on this machine a few days ago, and cant remember if this issue was pre or post that install. i have used EVEREST premium and it reports:
