Well, we all know you didn't pay for your pro.

Sounds like a permissions issue. Did you set your installer to Admin like it says in the VISTA section Stickies?

Sorry but passing the word along is against the forum rulez. It is considered breach of Warez rule.

Check ownership of the folder you are installing or did install into. Also check ownership of the actual program, surrounding folder & parent folders. There may be an issue there. I am aware LW has done something odd with permissions for installing LW.

Also check compatibility mode, perhaps worth swapping it around.
