Hello, the Python 2.6 installer on Vista does not requires UAC
permission thus does not work with "install for All user" option.

The installer said: You do not have sufficient privilleges to completes
the installation for all users of the machine. Log on as administrator
and then retry this installation.

See the "Vista Note" on

Closing as "won't fix".
