I uninstalled the preceding version and now I install since noon - not 
it is 23:00 hrs - the latest 64bit version for windows on Win 7 Prof.
PSPP installs very, very slowly.
Currently the installer says
Installation running. Please wait.
Search in C:\Program Files (x86)\share\icons\hicolor\16x16\actions
and this since maybe 20:00 hrs.
I guess it stops to install.

The slowness made me try to stop the installation process but all 
buttons in the install windows are greyed out, as well as the red close 
windows button on the upper right.

What happens if I kill the installation process through the task manager ?
I risk to get rests of the installation attempt scattered all over the 
registry ?
I generally use Revo Uninstaller Pro for installing (but not this time) 
as well for uninstalling.

I am really frustrated.
