possible leak of windows username in exported logfile

2018-03-07 08:58:50,641::INFO::[config:853] Writing settings to INI file C:\<USERNAME>s\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini

If the username is User, it looks like whatever find-and-replace operation used to strip it out of the path is stripping out C:\Users, which outs the username as User.

Well.. If your username is "User" then I don't think this is such a big "leak" since any hacker/intruder could guess that in a sec.
