Microsoft recommendations:
Avoid putting a version number in a program name unless that is how
users normally refer to your program.
Put only program shortcuts on the Start menu. Don't put shortcuts to
the following items on the Start menu:
- Program uninstallers. Users access uninstallers throug

Speaking about the CHM, why does it include the version number in it's filename?

I did a little test using MSVC 8.0 on WinXP.
I allocated 128 MB using 128 different buffers of 1 MB each,
freed half of them (alternatively) then freed the remaining half.
