Though in most cases they have just my patch to run in MaxPlay. Its less 
of a danger than in my own environment. And it wouldn't change anything 
if they'd just add the folder to the search path, search path is search 
path no matter if its in the patches folder or elsewhere. And Murphy 
tought me, that its always the wrong version loading if you have several 
of them no matter where you place it... ;-)
