Hi, Alexandre.
If you take a look at the Javadoc for IPluginDescriptor you'll find the 
information you need (for this and other deprecated methods).
In your case, anyway, you should use:

getDefault().getBundle().getEntry("/")

instead of

getDefault().getDescriptor().getInstallURL()

And here's the JavaDoc for 3.2:

http://help.eclipse.org/help32/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/org/eclipse/core/runtime/IPluginDescriptor.html

Have a nice reading... ;-)
