[Vpn-help] problem with installing vpn-client-2.1.5-rc-3 on Win7 x64

Hello.. I recently installed Windows 7 x64 along with a few of my coworkers.  Of course we're unable to use the Cisco VPN client due to the x64 limitation, and so we find ShrewVPN has a Windows 7 compatible (if at least in beta format) VPN client that seems to work for the most part.

I have had some trouble getting it to work on mine.  I had some early problems which required me to reinstall (I don't remember what they were at the moment) but now, when I try to install, I get 'Error 0x80070005:  Couldn't install the Network component:  Possible Cause:  Access Denied.'

I hit okay, it goes to 'preinstalling driver package', installing network service, and then 'InstallSelectedDriver failed, error code = 0x00000006'

I hit okay again, and it completes the setup (apparently) just fine.  It seems that the overall client setup doesn't know or care that the separate Driver Installation failed, which seems like something it should do.. apart from that, though, I'm unable to get this danged client installed anymore.  If I uninstall the client, it gives me similar errors during the process, then exits gracefully.

Any ideas?  I'd love to be able to help figure out what's causing this if possible.  Thanks!
