Then we left clicked the shortcut and chose "run as administrator"

after doing this the program hung up at 19% and said something about a "save folder" being damaged or missing. after hitting the "OK" button on this dialog box another dialog box came up asking us to choose a folder to stand in for the "missing or damaged" saved folder...

We simply created a folder named "saved" and this solved the problem....
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! BEEN FIGHTING THIS FOR 2 DAYS INSTALL DELETE JAVA FORUMS THEN I TRIED THIS AND IT WORKED LIKE A CHARM.
