I have seen this before as well.  Its either under
HKLM\Software\Citrix\.... or its somewhere under the keys for the MSI
installer. Fairly sure its the former.

I will ahe to give htem a call back and check on that second location
later, I have checked teh user shell folders and the Environement
variables under the Advanced system settings.
No trace of Drive E in either place, will have to call back to get the
shell folders.

        There's two paths under HKCU that you'd want to check, User
Shell folders is one of them, the second one is 
         
        
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\She
ll Folders
         
        Another quick way to verify that this issue is somehow related
to these paths, would be to have the user log into the machine under a
different profile. For example, if they have permissions to do so, have
them setup a new user account on the machine, set it up as a local
admin, then log in as that account. They should get a brand new user
profile at that point, clear of any specialized pathing under the shell
folders, and be able to install the client.

                        I would suggest taking a look at this registry
location:
                        
        
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Use
r 
                        Shell Folders
                        
                        There is possibly something being loaded into
the registry from a
                        group policy setting, or maybe from a login
script....
                        
                        A lot of installers look at these when
enumerating settings.
