I believe you can find a modified Live installer here in the forums somewhere.

But if you want to do it yourself:

Download the Live installer from http://download.live.com/

Download a small utility called Resource Hacker to modify the installer from http://angusj.com/resourcehacker/

Now open the wlsetup-web.exe file with resource hacker.

Go to the CONFIG -> CONFIG0 -> 0 key and locate the text:

name="vista+">

Change it to:

name="vista+">

Press the Compile Script button and save the file.

You can now use the installer to get all the Live applications.

I didn’t test the Toolbar and Family Safety, but Messenger, Mail, Photo Gallery, Writer, and Movie Maker work flawlessly.
