Can't Install AdAware
Everytime I try to install AdAware a box pops up promting me to pick a language. I pick english and then a box pops up called "Windows Installer". THe only thing I can do is Click 'OK' and the box goes away, nothing installed. Is there something blocking me from installing the software?

Thanks,
Dvideostor

Which software and from where did you download it from. Might be file is corrupt if all other software is able to install.

If you have any other security on the computer then turn it off and try again.

In addition to the above you may need to repair Windows Installer.
Check.

Is this the only program you have trouble installing?
