I figured out what the problem is ... when i make the zip, i zip a temporary tree. I do that using the -ll switch because when i started distributing the zips it was a demand that line ending should be nice for unix (windows can handle cr and lr, and we probably had no mac os-9 users). However, in a second zip pass, i add the binary files and dll/exe were never part of that. As a result, two bytes got messed up and these made the exe file invalid. So the problem is not related to xp or vista or 64 bit (which was somewhat puzzling for me as windows binaries are normally quite portable). I uploaded a new beta and installing seemd to work ok on xp and vista (virtual machines). The fact that it worked on taco and my machine is that we send binaries to each other. Als, the zip on taco's site was okay.
