Can't install Symantec products

When I try to install pcAnywhere using the setup mode of
the CDROM, I get access permission errors, telling me
that I don't have the proper permissions to install. I
can do a passive install without getting the error.
However, after a passive install the product won't make
connections.

I have been trying everything that Symantec tech support
recommends. They now say it is a Windows permission
problem, since I cannot do a normal install. And, I was
unable to remove the read-only setting on any of the
system folders, such as "Windows".

For more details about the problem, please see the
following URL, on Symantec's web site.

group=symantec.support.generic.pca11.general&article=5765

I'd appreciate any suggestions that anyone has.

Thanx,
Barb
