nmefwmi.exe issue in Oracle 11g on Vista

A window keeps pop-up saying "nmefwmi.exe has stopped working".

It is a known bug in Oracle, should be fixed in 11.1.0.7 release according to metalink.

Suggested Workaround prior to 11.1.0.7:

Check Compatibility in properties of setup.exe to "Run this program as a administrator".
