I believe that this Windows Installer issue was causing my Anti-Virus to freak out as well.

After using your first fix, I have no more warnings from KAV or Windows Action Center!

1. Delete the string values (Except for (Default)) in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows\DisabledSessions
2. Start gpedit.msc
3. Expand Computer Configuration, expand Administrative Templates, expand System, expand Internet Communication Management, and then click Internet Communication settings.
4. In the details pane, double-click Turn off Windows Customer Experience Improvement Program, and then click Enabled.

Step 1 for me there were no other values under DisabledSessions other than Default (not set).

I did steps 2-4.

Thanks

I started having this problem and the registry modifcaion you have in your post solved my issue.

This stuff can be very frustrating. Thanks for your help.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Windows-7-Windows-Installer-has-stopped-working-21766781 Mon, 19 Jan 2009 04:23:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Windows-7-Windows-Installer-has-stopped-working-21766633
Apparently there's a bug in Microsoft's Customer Experience Improvement Program that's causing msiexec to crash.

It can be fixed by turning off Customer Experience Improvement Program or by editing the registry.

Turning off CEIP:

regedit:
navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows\DisabledSessions
rename MachineThrottling to _MachineThrottling
