Also happens in the Oct2014 release. Also, the MonetDB Server batch file breaks if there happens to be a folder name that contains an ampersand (&) character in the %PATH% variable.

I cannot reproduce this on a clean system. All updates applied, and firefox installed, but nothing else. Certainly no old versions of MonetDB installed.
Can you try with the Microsoft dependency walker (depends.exe from http://www.dependencywalker.com) which exe or dll in the installation requires the missing dll?

It turned out the failing system had an unrelated version of iconv.dll in its system folder. In addition, it turned out that Windows looks in the system folder before looking into the folders mentioned in the Path variable to locate a DLL. In other words, the wrong (i.e., not our own) iconv.dll was loaded.
Since it also turned out that Windows looks in the folder in which the EXE was found before it looks in the system folder, we should be able to force the use of our own DLLs by mnoving them into the same folder as the EXEs.

Now that Hannes has tested the new installer and reported that it works, we can close the bug report.
