The symptom: When loading the environment using a binary instalation of builds (2.0.17) the projects path appear with something different from "x:".

Extension: The bb.win32.ini was correct, so was the generated iienv.bat. All point to @X:@. But still the path was build with ".". The environment variable "BB_PROJECTS" was poiting to "."

The problem: The environment variable BB_PROJECTS was set in the system environment to "." and for some reason builds was not overriding it with the right value.

The solution: Remove the definition of BB_PROJECTS from the system environment:

* Right-button in "My Computer";
* TAB: Advanced;
* BUTTON: "Environment Variables";
* Remove BB_PROJECTS from the "System Variables" list.
