Sharepoint 2007 Userlist custom property

Question

I have a custom event handler on a wiki page, which should add a Tag to a custom coloumn which I attached to the Users List.
The problem is how can I obtain a reference to the List in a event. It doesn't seem to be in the Profile of the profile manager and accessing it with Spweb.Lists["Userinformationlist"] gives me an error for non Admin Users.

Thanks for any advice
