[Tutor] Quickest way to find a folder on windows

Hi all,

What is the quickest way to find/search a folder on windows? Specifically, I want to find the 'My Documents' folder on different machines but since this one lies in different user-specific folders (the user account on XP) I'm being forced to traverse the whole drive looking for it (though I can start from 'Documents and Settings' to prune the search space)

Is there a faster way? I know this is very reliant on the windows search API so maybe I'm stuck with my solution
Any help is appreciated

cheers
