If you followed the tutorial that explains how to install using mayapy.exe, my guess is Windows is refusing to write to a folder inside Program Files. install Windows 7 is an unbelievable pain when it comes to folder permissions. Anything inside c/program files is off limits.
When you move something into c:/program files/autodesk/maya/python/lib/site-packages manually, you'll either get Permission Denied, or you get that annoying You Have to be Admin message, that you get even when you *are* admin. The problem is that there is no such warning when you try to move stuff using easy_install, a bat file or a Python file. Windows simply refuses to move the stuff and thats it. Try installing Pymel in a different location, like C:/Python26, then move it manually to maya/python/site-packages At our place, we have PyMel installed on the server, then add the path to sys.path when Maya starts.
