I'm sure that it's alright, but I'd just like to hear an explanation of this. I got this message from Comodo when it happened:




And then when I blocked it, Avast popped this out:

Comodo is interfering with the installation process and it might cause errors. All firewalls do it to a certain extent (Comodo even more!) but they usually give you the option to not interfere. I know my ESET Smart Security offers it. Check your settings.

It's normal in this case for a program to access the registry during the installation process, especially an antivirus.
