Hi,
Have you tried clearing the %temp% folder and disabling your antivirus software?

Rick - I did what you told me to do and it worked. Thanks. Now I have
another problem - the new PhotoShopPro program I just got will not completely
load onto the computer. It loads all the way to 100% but just before it is
suppose to complete, I get the message that there was a problem and the
program backs itself down. Is it still my computer?
