When installing NetMon 3.4 earlier today I had a strange error on test Windows Server 2008 R2 Virtual Machine.

After immediately blaming UAC and several other troublesome technologies I found that the issue was that I had downloaded the installer to the root of C: as netmon.exe.

Renaming the installer to anything other than netmon.exe and rerunning the installation solved the issue.
