[IronPython] I can't install the MSI for IP2.6 RC1

[Dino Viehland]

Weird, I don't know why this would happen then :(

Maybe going to %WINDIR%\assembly\GAC_MSIL and clearing out the 
Microsoft.Scripting, Microsoft.Dynamic, IronPython, etc... directories 
would help?

Alternately you could run process explorer while the setup is running
and see if you can find where the access is denied is coming from.
