System: WindowsXP
Component: Uninstaller

Windows uninstaller removes whole directory content, no mater what is in it.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install globulation into c:\games
2. Copy any other files into c:\games
3. Uninstall globulation

Result:
Directory c:\games has been completely deleted.

Expected result:
Directory c:\games should contain files from 'step 2.'
