I hope that people are not losing sight of the basic problem: If a Vista user selects the first option in the installer (see screenshot in my original post) then IrfanView is left in a state in which it thinks it can modify its own INI file, but it can't.
For the record, I agree with MItaly that if you want to do a portable installation, you should have to indicate that in the installer.
