Installing Quicken in Program Files

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

It appears that Intuit is telling Vista users not to install
Quicken in the Program Files folder.

Does anyone here have any experience that would support, or
contradict, this recommendation?

Any comments on the idea in general? Are there any good
reasons (or ANY reasons) why software should not be
installed in the Program Files folder? Are there short, or
long, term benefits, or costs, to doing this?
