Default Cant install; Says "Error opening file for writing" ?

Help! I get into the download and less than 3 seconds into the setup I get a message that reads:

Error opening file for writing:

C:\PROGRAM FILES\LIMEWIRE\COPYING

Click Abort to stop the installation,
Retry to try again,
Or Ignore to skip this file.

Reinstall LW but make sure LW is not running. Check in your Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Delete) look in Processes for LimeWire.exe. if it's there right click on it and end the process. If this doesn't fix your problem --- In Limewire Links (below) click on (Fixes for LW when LW isn't operating as it should) and go through these fixes

LW links are changed at times to match the current problems.
