Turn off Tea-Timer. To be honest I never use Tea-Timer and will never advise anyone to use it. It slows down the PC and doesn't offer enough protection to bother with.

Try cleaning your temp files and then try to download and install it again.

1) Click Start,  Programs (or All Programs), Accessories,  System Tools, Disk Cleanup
2) Choose the correct drive usually C:\
3) Check the boxes in the list and delete the files

    Spybot is good to keep for the Immunize feature. Update it about once a week and always click the Immunize button as well for added security. You can keep SuperAntiSpyware and run it occasionally to make sure nothing has crept back in.

    Try to download a fresh copy of the antivirus, the other one is corrupted for some reason.
