In which directory should my installer install the application on Vista?

Question

I almost finished developing the game for Windows, and I am curious where I have to install the installer. I know that it was in the "Program Files", but has it changed under Vista?

I know that World of Warcraft is now installed in the Users / Publishing / Games section ... what is the Microsoft-recommended gaming location?
