You would need admin rights to install the firewall client. When you run
setup, do you get the Repair option? Does the firewall client show up in
add/remove programs? If so, I'd try the repair option, or try
uninstalling/reinstalling.

I can't find any installation issues about the firewall client in TechNet.
