installation of office home and student 2007

Question:This is seemingly an installation issue, I think.  I brought 2007 Home and Student Office about one month ago.  I'm just now installing in time for school.  No install wizard kicked in, just autoplay.  After selecting installation, I got amessage that OneNote.en-us ****.msi and that I must choose a valid installation source.  After repeated attempts of the same thing, I decided to select customize and delete OneNote program from my installationl.  This only created a new message with the same thing.  "setup cannot find Office.en-us\officeLR.cab.  Is there no end.  Then I tried activation of my product key, which the official site denied saying that my store bought version product key was not valid.  Then we I searched the online help topics my problem is not listed and the telephone and internet help lines need a credit card and charge $49.  That is a rip off.  I welcome all good suggestions.  My computer running vista.

Ah ha.  Routing me to the discussion groups seemed daunting at first.  No one had the same problem but some were nearly similiar.  One solution was to turn off Norton, which I did and tada, my installation problems disappeared.  Now why couldn't have someone said that.  So I'm saying that.  Thank you.
