Mikeee Posted January 13, 2008 I'm trying to get rid of a SpyGuardPro Trojan. In reading other fourms I discovered this program. When trying to install it -- I have a popup window that says - The windows installer service could not be accessed ?? I downloaded the latest version of Windows Installer (3.1.1) and installed it. But still have this problem.. I'm running Windows XP Any suggestions ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
