Windows Installer Error 11708
We are running a Windows 2000 Server with Sp4. We recently became unable to install .msi programs. The Event log we are getting is:

We have tried Adobe Acrobat 6 Reader install with the same results. I WAS able to re-install the Windows Installer 2.0, I have run sfc /SCANNOW, I have re-ran SP4. Still no dice...Any thoughts?

Ousp, in 2000 it's in administrative tools -> Components services. ;)

i went into Component Services, Under the Default Security Tab. I compared permissions to an XP workstation.Launch Permissions were the same, howeverAccess permissions on 2k Server were blank. I added System (like it is on XP), rebooted and still have the same problems.
what was it?
