Hi, nice project, I ran the h2online as an admin on windows (prior to this I did not run as an admin, even though my windows user is an admin :|), all of the sudden h2online started crashing.

The error is below. Can there be a nicer error message for this, instead of the crashing? As it is not evident from the program crash what is going on, I only found out by debugging it myself.

{"Access to the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo 2\h2vlauncher.log' is denied."}

at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) at System.IO.File.InternalDelete(String path, Boolean checkHost) at System.IO.File.Delete(String path) at h2online.MainWindow.InitiateTrace() in E:\projects\H2V-Online-Launcher-master\H2V\MainWindow.xaml.cs:line 63 at h2online.MainWindow..ctor() in E:\projects\H2V-Online-Launcher-master\H2V\MainWindow.xaml.cs:line 39

This is expected behavior as it doesn't have an exception handler if it's unable to access the log file which is restricted to Administrators.

The latest version automatically asks you to run the program as the administrator. This should no longer be a problem.
