Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime error

I am trying to run through the Excercise at MSDN and am getting an error in Task 2 when trying to run Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime:

Add-PSSnapin : Cannot load Windows PowerShell snap-in Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime because of the following error: 

The Windows PowerShell snap-in module C:\Program Files\Windows Azure Integration Components\v1.6\Powershell\Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.Commands.dll does not have required Windows PowerShell snap-in strong name Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.Commands, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35.
At line:1 char:13
+ Add-PSSnapin <<<<  Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidArgument: (Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime:String) [Add-PSSnapin], PSSnapIn
   Exception
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : AddPSSnapInRead,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.AddPSSnapinCommand

All previous tasks have completed without issue and task 2, step 2 states that "the snap-in is installed with the integration components and provides access to the Windows Azure runtime environment" which was performed without issue in a previous Excercise and Task. Has anyone run into this issue?

Please try to run this command:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

This will allow us to run any plug-ins, even if the plug-in is not strong name signed. But be aware this may introduce security issues. So it is recommended to revert the execution policy after you finishes the tutorial.

Set-ExecutionPolicy Restricted

You can also refer to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd347628.aspx for more information
