Hi Larry.

See MSKB#Q303827 - PRB: Norton AntiVirus Error When Running Setup from Vfpstart.hta. The resolution is:

To allow the setup to complete, select Allow the entire script once from the Action menu, then click OK in the dialog box. The setup page uses Windows Scripting to start the various setups. Norton AntiVirus captures scripting activity and warns the user of possible threats.
