Can you tell us exactly what version you have, your specs say your using XP, and how are you trying to install, via a CD or a download from the Internet.

Re: unable to install antivirus

Are you an administrator on your PC?

You can check this by going to the Control Panel then User Accounts and under your name will be:

"Limited/Standard User" OR "Administrator".

Good Luck,
