I cant start the installer. I click the last "Next " button and it brings up the installer window saying "Initializing..." but never moves past that to start installing the files. I have tried restarting the PC 3 times now and I have waited a good 20 minutes to see if it would respond or do anything at all. There are no other applications up and running while I do this.

Any suggestions or assistance in this matter?

i would try using the "old" ad-aware installer, which is the one that i use.. here is the link:
