I get that message...I have read posts about doing regedits to set
permissions. I have Norton AV 2004 turned off, and Spy Sweeper disabled.
Here is the scvpack.log section:
1281.703: Copied file: C:\Program Files\messenger\custsat.dll
1281.828: Copied file: C:\WINDOWS\INF\msmsgs.inf
1301.859: PruneCatalogsFromHotfixes:RegQueryValueEx Failed: 0x2
1302.844: Num Ticks for Copying files : 885344
1303.266: DoRegistryUpdates:SetupInstallFromInfSection Failed for
ProductInstall.GlobalRegistryChanges.Install error: 0x5
1303.266: INF_REGISTRY Failed
1303.266: DoInstallation:DoRegistryUpdates failed
1329.625: Unregistration of sprecovr successful
1329.719: Access is denied.
2442.281: Message displayed to the user: Access is denied.
2442.281: User Input: OK

Why does this happen and more important, what needs to be done to get the
install to complete?

TIA,
Perry
 
I forgot, here is the last part of my setupapi.log:

Hi

It might be better to just reset the security settings back to
the defaults for all registry keys.

More here on how to do that:

How To Reset Security Settings Back to the Defaults
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=313222

If you only want to reset the registry permissions,
add this to the secedit command line:

/areas REGKEYS
