Angry System Administrator has set policies...
I'm trying to install Norton Ghost 2002 on my XP Professional. I'm the 'administrator', but it says "the administrator has set policies to prevent this installation." I haven't. I've checked and rechecked my policies and permissions. What could I be doing wrong???

Are you logged in under the actual user name "Administrator?" For some things you need to be.

I had exactly the same problem. It turned out I had already installed Ghost when I Installed Norton System Works 2002.
