To enable a successful install of Zune software, make sure your Windows Firewall is turned ON. After the install you can then turn it off again.

This solution enables the software to correctly, the way it was intended to. There is no need for regedits or other workarounds that will only cause you problems later.

Hope it works for you.

NOTE: In Vista the firewall service requires that both the Security Center and the Base Filtering Engine services be on as well. Feel free to disable them after the install.
