Build and Deploy fails to automatically detect simulators on Windows 7 that were not installed for "all users".

Build and Deploy searches for the ".rc" file that the simulator installer creates in order to register the simulator on the system for other RIM tools to use. On Windows 7, Build and Deploy currently searches under the Common Files area, but the simulator installer only puts it there if the user selects "All Users" during the simulator install. Build and Deploy needs to be modified to also look under C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Smartphone Simulators 7.0.0 (for example).
