Resolution

Before you install WorldView

Before you install WorldView, make sure you do the following:

• Temporarily disable antivirus and security software.
• Close all open programs. (Check your Windows toolbar to see if any programs are running. Shut down the Microsoft Office toolbar if your workstation has one. Press CTRL + ALT + DEL to view a list or programs that are currently running, and close any programs that Windows does not require for its operation.)
• If you're installing WorldView from a Windows 2000/XP workstation on a network, make sure you log on to the network as an administrator, and log on to the workstation with administrator rights.
