Unable to Install Some Programs

[mnf]

Suddenly, I am not able to install new programs.
InstallShield seems to start, but closes too quickly to
read what's on the screen or it doesn't start at all.

I've tried doing an install from the Add/Remove Programs
area, from "Run"; from just double clicking on the file
name. The results are the same. No install.

What is the problem and how might I fix it?

Thanks
