I recently had issues with a QuickBooks reinstall after some computer corruption and couldn't get it to reinstall for the life of me.
Exhausting all resources and finally fixing it I am going to let you know what I did for fix it.
I was getting error 1304 (Error 1304: "Error writing to file [file name]. Verify that you have access to that directory.") first and was saying my cd drive was bad but I wasn't installing from cd as it was the exe file downloaded from their site.
I found after numerous hours and trial and error that the .net was the culprit and I tried to uninstalled and reinstall and then got:
Error 25015 failed to install assembly system error 0x80131107 failed to install because of system error 0x80131107
I could not get it to reinstall. I had to rename the C:\windows\assembly folder and clean out all the .net files from the c:\windows\microsoft.net folder. I then reinstalled the .net 2.0 successfully this time, rebooted and then installed my QuickBooks successfully.

Conficker Worm, April 1st, or April Fools
April first, really now?
Conficker Worm to destroy the world, right after the Rapture and the Y2K. Usually this is something that happens then they talk. They have first hand knowledge of this worm and yet they can't stop it? I know they are not that dumb.
As always I tell everyone, backup and don't open anything you don't recognized and keep your AV up-to-date. Offsite is the best next to you sitting down and doing it the old fashioned way and burning to disk or use to external device. I like to set it and forget it and have a copy far away from me.
I use Mozy backup, they give you 2gb free and you can purchase more. Out of all the backup solutions I have used over the years this is the easiest and cleanest program I have ever had the pleasure of using. The recover is awesome as well. Give it a whirl.
Offsite Backup (Data Loss is a hard and costly lesson)Set it and forget it with Mozy, offsite backup 2GB Totally Free Online Backup! Compliments of Mozy
Microsoft is offering a PC Safety Scan
***note that some users have reported it crashed their machines
You can try some of these downloadable options as well:
Symantec's Conficker (aka Downadup) tool
Trend Micro's Cleanup Engine
