        I have tried both internet explorer and firefox. They both will download and start to install reader than it fails towards the end stating that I don't have the rights.  Flash player appears to install correctly but every website I go to states that it is not installed.

        Error 1402 could not open key.
        hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run\optionalcomponents\imail.
        verify that you have sufficient access to that key.

          You could try creating a new user account and see if it works ok. If so then transfer over documents and settings then delete the old account. Perhaps it would be best to start a new thread in the software forum. I'm quite sure it's not malware related.
