About a second later I was greeted with the following:
Apparently, Live Mesh client requires UAC to be switched on during installation and operation. This is due to a technical constraint imposed by the COM layer in Vista and should be fixed in the next beta release.
There is a post on the Live Mesh Blog that provides some more information.
