Vista's Robocopy Won't Work on XP

Microsoft Windows Vista and 7 comes with Robocopy. It performs similar operation as UNIX rsync on Windows. I have Vista installed on one computer and XP installed on another computer. I thought maybe copying "Robocopy.exe" over to XP would work. But that fails with the following message in a dialog box:

C:\Robocopy.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

After pushing the "OK" button, it displays "Access is denied." on the command-line. If you have better luck, please let us know.
