I forgot to turn off all the above, anti-virus, anti-spyware, 3rd party firewall,
WinPatrol, you name it I left it all on.
No problems.
I did note however during installation my security did pop up to ask me to allow
installation and WinPatrol did ask about a service which I allowed at the time because I
knew what was happening. Perhaps some security software, just stops the installation
process altogether without warning.
