It’s because you’re installing on http://localhost/ — that won’t work (it might be fixed in WordPress 3.0, not sure), it needs to resemble a full domain name i.e. something.com. I have an alias setup in my /etc/hosts file (if you’re on Windows, Google for the location of this file. I think it’s in /system32/) for “example.com”.
