Default Storage Location Question

A long time ago I learned not to fix something that's not broken....but
sometimes I just can't control myself. I have two users (myself and my
wife). We share one Hotmail (free) account. Doing a Property check on her
OE6 folders shows them to be located under her Local Settings\Application
Data\Identities\{GUID}. Well, in reality, her .dbx files are not there,
they're located under MY Local Settings (with a different GUID). When I do a
Switch Identities from My account, it shows empty folders (It's obviously
going to the GUID under her Local Settings), but if I switch users and open
her OE, the folders are populated correctly.
Questions: Does anybody understand this behavior, and if so, would they
explain it to me? Does anybody see any reason that I should *improve* my
current situation, which is giving me no apparent problems? If so, how? Any
other comments appreciated.
