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.
