If found it warns the user that there might be LDraw already installed and
aborts the installer. I narrowed the search down to program files folder 'cos
otherwise it would also find already deleted copies in the recycle bin.

I've considered searching for LDConfig.ldr instead but opted for Parts.lst 'cos
it would also find LDraw installation installed some years ago.

Let me know what you think.

I think that's awesome! Do you think that eventually you would tackle
uninstalling? Even just aborting is very helpful though as the user then knows
that they have to do some more investigation.
