I downloaded apache_2.2.4-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi from the //apache.cs.utah.edu/pub/apache.org mirror. I used the md5 method to validate and validation appeared to be successful. During apache install there was an error when SymantecAntivirus was being installed. I do not have the exact error message but the apache install continued after clicking the Cancel to proceed past the Symantec install. The apache install appeared to be working but when I did a right click on the Start button (Windows XP SP2) I would get a SymantecAntivirus.msi install error as it was trying to access a file on C:\temp\. It was a rather time consuming process to rid my machine of this partial Symantec installation. Part of my concern is that this was a 10.0 version of Sym AntiVirus. We just had a virus outbreak because of vulnerability in that version of Symantec antivirus. I am posting this question because I have not seen any indication, on the apache site, about this problem. Have others seen this problem? Why does apache 2.2.4 install SymantecAntivirus software?
I could be wrong, but I don't believe Apache installs Symantec.Is it possible you already HAVE symantec, and the error was something to do with maybe Symantec security suite? Or perhaps an improperly installed copy of Symantec?
