Guido pointed out that the "non-admin install" blurb got displayed

very late in the process when running on Windows 2000 without admim
privs.  Rearranged so that the admin check is done at the start
instead.  Added words to the end of the blurb to make it very clear
how to abort the install (wasn't obvious to me that "Cancel" was
the right thing to click).
