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.
