Can anyone help!!!!

With most install problems, I would just make sure you have the most recient version of the java runtime environment installed. Also, try closing any antivirus software before you try to install. They sometimes think installs are viruses and deny them acess to your computer. I know it's not much to go off, but i hope its somewhat helpful.
