Atm. Vista installations are more or less broken. Apparently nobody has ever tested the current installer on Vista. My installer still needs some decent testing before it can replace the current (for Windows installations), so a hotfix for the current would seem like a good idea in my opnion. Either that, or announce clearly on freenetproject.org that Vista is *not* supported atm.
