<p>The error you're experiencing is usually caused by Vista or an Antivirus.  It usually means that the launchpad is downloading the files but something is blocking it from applying those updates.  Assuming it is Vista, you should be able to correct it by following these steps:</p><p>1. Right click on the program launch icon2. Left click on "Properties".3. In the new window that pops up click on the "Compatibility" tab.4. In the "Compatibility Mode" area check the box next to "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"5. In the drop down list make certain that "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" is selected.6. Under "Privilege Level" make certain that the box next to "Run this program as administrator" is checked.7. Click on "Apply" then click on "Ok".8. Right click on the icon and select "Run as Administrator"</p><p>If you're running an antivirus then try disabling it temporarily.  If the problem persists then please respond and include the name of your antivirus if you use one.</p>
