zend-framework

I have just moved from Linux to Windows, and I have to use the Zend Framework library. Where should the library be placed?

Directly on C drive
Create a lib folder like C:/lib/
Create a lib folder in my user folder

I am wondering if there is a classic folder where these kind of libraries are placed.

Update:I am asking about the location on my own standpoint. The Zend Framework library is a PHP framework.
