There are two problems:

(1) the installer is attempting to install a Network Provider interface
    that is no longer supported on Vista

(2) the Wix framework used to produce the MSI is not compatible with
    Vista

Solving (1) requires redesigning the methods we use to obtain tickets
as part of the Windows Logon process.  Solving (2) requires fixing the
open source Wix framework.  Given our current resource availability I
believe we will allow someone else to tackle this problem.
