i am not by any means an expert computer user which is why i chose to use ad aware se from lavasoft because of its ease of use however i have been waiting with anticipation for the release of ad aware 2007 and downloaded it on june 7th only to discover that i cannot instal it no matter what i do i have uninstalled my old version (ad aware se) i have also removed all instances of it using regedit all to no avail i am running windows xp sp2 and have never had a problem like this before i have for the moment given up on trying to instal this program and as of now do not have any lavasoft programs installed if someone can give me a way of installing ad aware 2007 i would be most grateful i am at this moment at my wits end!!

Error 1722 is not an Ad-Aware error, but rather the MSI installer from our friends at Microsoft. This has affected other products as well.

See this for some ideas on solving it.

Hello


or here

<http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?showtopic=9586>

tried all of the above drove myself absolutely mad with it (i do of course appreciate the fact you took the time to try to help me out) but i think i will never get the program (ad aware 2007 free) to instal and i think i will therefor look elsewhere for an adware program that will install!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Worked for me.. thanks so much!
