The matplotlib installers for Windows are built with the 
user-access-control=auto option. Otherwise they would not work correctly 
with UAC on Windows Vista and 7. See also 
http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg13466.html.
 


I can provide eggs for the next release.

Python bdist_wininst installers are valid ZIP files. You can open 
matplotlib-1.0.0.win32-py2.6.exe with a ZIP program, e.g. WinRAR, and 
extract the directories/files found under PLATLIB into 
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages.
