How do I install Google Desktop? For some reason, whenever I go to install the new version of Google Desktop, it says that it has to restart my computer. It does so and then nothing happens. I double-click the Google Desktop Setup file and it does the same thing over again. Some background: I had Google Desktop Search on beforehand, but I was unable to use Add / Remove Programs to uninstall, so I followed Google's help and manually uninstalled it. The files are still resident on my HD. Don't know if this is the problem. One thing I do know is that if I don't get this solved and soon (I've sent about four different emails to Google, but always get automated responses that do nothing), I'm going to have to download the new MSN desktop search. Please help stop this madness! Thanks, Jamie | |

You may have something such as a deep preserver which resets the computer to however you preseved it as everytime you restart the computer so you can never get any viruses if so you should turn it off under an administrator account and then try agian. |

Interesting... any suggestion on where the deep preserver would be so that I can turn it off. I have, by the way, the following other programs installed (in case any of these include this feature): - McAfee Anti-Virus - ZoneAlarm - Microsoft Anti-Spyware (or whatever the name of that program is) |
