Running Cisco VPN on Non-English Windows Vista

Just a quick note to let you guys out there know, that there are some problems installing the latest version (5.0.01.0600) on Windows Vista non-english versions.

The problem, as described in the error-box by cisco is:

Error 1609. An error occurred while applying security settings. Users is not a valid user or group.

It seems, that Cisco want a local Users group. However, it seems to be a somewhat common problem: http://www.google.dk/search?sourceid=navclient&hl=en-GB&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4GGLJ_en-GBDK232DK232&q=Error+1609%2e+An+error+occurred+while+applying+security+settings%2e+Users+is+not+a+valid+user+or+group%2e

Cisco has however released a MST-file that should enable installation on localized version of Windows Vista. If you’re unable of getting that, this fix should be able to get you up and running: http://ciscoforum.dk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=148&PN=1
