Does anyone have a trick for installing DBT 10.6 on Vista? I've tried on two machines, and on both the installation fails with "Windows installer was unable to create activation files in ...". I've tried multiple paths, and the instructions indicate that one does not need to do anything special to install (though activation itself requires running DBT "as administrator"), but still no go.

This is from a CD release of 10.6, and is probably before any service packs. But I can't find a collection of updates on the DBT site at all.

Is there a trick?
