I want to setup Ad-Aware SE I got it from download.com
It says: Please reinstall again. I reinstalled it and it still says the same. How can I open the setup?

May I throw out a recommendation against Microsoft OneCare... in a recent test it was the least effective virus scanner of more than 10 tested. I'd go with AVG, it's free and works great.

Try downloading from another site (see below)
I would run the following 2 free tests to clean up any remnants before and other problems before trying to reinstall.
Microsoft OneCare Live, run “full service scan”
Updates windows, virus and spyware scan, disk cleanup, disk fragmentation (if needed), backs up registry and then cleans registry, and checks for open firewall ports
http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm
Malicious Software Removal Tool (run “full scan”)

--------------------------------
Install the following five programs and run weekly or at least monthly. You need all five. They are not a substitute for full time spyware and virus protection.
Ad-Aware SE Personal (update + full scan)
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad-aware_se_personal.php
Spybot Search & Destroy (update + immunize + scan)
Do not enable Tea Timer and SDHelper
After installation: update + scan + immunize
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html
SpywareBlaster: Update then open and click “enable all protection”.

SUPERAntiSpyware free version: (update + scan)

CCleaner: Do not install toolbar and recycle bin options
Set to run when computer starts.
Removes tracking cookies, unneeded files

Note if a scan detects a problem but is unable to remove, start the computer in safe mode with the internet line disconnected and run a full scan.

You may want to uninstall it and reinstall it only reinstall in safe mode with networking. You should also save it to your system first then open it.
