Fix VMware vSphere Client on Windows 7

I’ve started to use Windows 7 as working desktop OS. When I try to use vSphere Client to connect to ESX Server, it just gives me errors like

and

The type initializer for ‘VirtualInfrastructure.Utils.HttpWebRequestProxy’ threw an exception.

After googling, I get some solution. With a little modification from Pank’s patch, it works fine now. :)

P.S. The newer version 2.0.50727.4927 of system.dll seems not work, so that’s why to pack version 2.0.50727.3053.
