Some 'thing' is interfering with the installation of the software
components.
Those 'things' may be antivirus/security suites, 3rd party firewalls
[Commodo, Zone Alarm, etc.], popup/cookie blockers included with 3rd

If the OS is Vista, use an Elevated Command Prompt [ right click
'command' and choose ' Run as administrator ' ]
