BTW, maybe I shall mention that modern Linux does not have a directory organization similiar to Windows's "Program Files". Our binaries usually go in /usr/bin, our libraries in /usr/lib, our configuration files in /etc, etc.. We tend to use some packaging system (RPM for Fedora, and many others) to keep track of what goes where, and do the management (uninstalls, upgrades, etc).


Look at

and look at some RPM documentation. to get a clearer idea of how it works.
