If you find an existing installation of PGP 6.5.8 the key locations 
are stored in PGPSDK.DAT. This file is located in

   %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\PGP

or (in case %USERPROFILE% is not set, i.e. W9x, WME) in

   %WINDIR%

Don't be tempted to use %APPDATA%, this points to a localized version 
of "Application Data". On my german system this is "Anwendungsdaten". 
"Application Data" is hardcoded.

Don't be tempted to use %HOMEPATH%, there is no such thing as 
%HOMEPATH% under NT4 nor W2K.

According to Google, PGKSDK.DAT formerly was PGPSDK.PRF in PGP 5.5.x 
and PGP_SDK.PRF in PGP 6.0.x
