MSI Constantly REINSTALLING Access Runtime 2002

[Simon Lew]

Can anyone tell me why Access Runtime 2002 is re-installing itself everytime
a student launches an Access database? Runtime is currently installed under
Add/Remove programs yet it installs again.

It is configured to install in both the User and Computer configurations of
the Group Policy Software Settings/Software installation section.

Any tips would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
