..that is what the damn window says with the following incomplete and
useless "Access is denied" message.
Access to what? Where? Why? --- ZERO info. POS.
This happens almost exactly half the way thru the process as seen by
the progress bar.
What is more irritating that all of the work that had been done is
then UNDONE!

How in the #$&@#)^%!%^# can this be fixed?

From install (over 2 years ago) I never allowed XP to update. Since then
have not picked up any crud, or experienced any of the problems that seem
rife with XP. (touch wood!).
