There is one other bug in the server itself which can cause a similar
effect on Vista - the fix for that is waiting to be committed to the
main postgresql code, but is not in the installer you tested (I also
cannot update it at the moment as I'm overseas and only have a Mac
with me).

This bug is most likely to show up if you are running the installer
when logged into the Administrator account which can become the
default in some installations of Vista. Could this be the case for
you? If so, try creating a new user account with administrative
privileges, and then run the installer whilst logged in as that user.
