Thanks a lot AmbrNewlearner. Could you give me an advise where I can make these modifications?
"change the permissions on the Installer folder to
Everyone - Read (RX)
Administrators - FullControl
SYSTEM - FullControl"
thanks again
This reply is with the consideration that you are on Windows XP. If you are on some other Operating System i.e. OS [e.g VISTA], then tell me as these steps might be different for your OS and then I will reply for specific OS.

_Note_: I assume that you are using Windows XP on a domain. By default, simplified sharing is enabled in Windows XP if you are not connected to a domain. This means that the Security tab and advanced options for permissions are not available.
If you are not joined to a domain and want to view the Security tab, then follow these steps----------->
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Appearance and Themes, and then click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab, and then click to clear the Use simple file sharing [Recommended] check box in the Advanced settings box.

3. Click Advanced, and then use one of the following steps: • To set special permissions for an additional group or user, click Add, and then in Name box, type the name of the user or group, and then click OK.

If the Remove button is unavailable, click to clear the Inherit from parent the permission entries that apply to child objects.

7. Click OK two times, and then click OK in the Advanced Security Settings for FolderName box, where FolderName is the folder name.
