Error 1609 while setup

[Guest]

An error occured while applying security settings. Users is not a valid user
or group. This could be a problem with the package, or a problem connecting
to a domain controller on the network.

Hi

Workaround from Jacek Kolonko:

""
Maybe the following commands do work on Windows XP Home Ed.:
1. (Start -> Run...) net localgroup Users /add
2. Install WindowsDefender.msi.
3. (Start -> Run...) net localgroup Users /delete

This workaround has been tested on Windows XP Professional.""

Works perfect both for Home and Pro ! It´s a SID fault within the msi
for non english OS

Works on Norwegian XP pro too.

Guess the coders should be forced to read their own "designed for windows xp
logo guide".. Must be embaressing to release a product (beta) that does not
support other languages then English...
