Problem in installing SKYPE

Hi Mark,

The message that you are pertaining as error message is not actually an error message. It looks like in the middle of installation you press the ESC (escape) key or you have click the cancel button or you have click the close button.

As you can see on the error message (not an error message actually), the title of the message box is Exit Installer and the icon is question mark. On error message window or dialog box, most of the time it contains the word error and icon is a red “X” or a yellow exclamation point.

In your case, the system is asking for your confirmation if either you want to continue installation or cancel the installation. See the phrase “If you exit now,…” that indicates you have cancelled or interrupted the installation process. To proceed on installation just click the no button, otherwise click the yes to abort the installation or exit the installation application.

If it is true that you didn’t cancel the installation, you may check some errors in your keyboard or in your mouse. Maybe something happened behind your installation activity that’s why the installation might be cancelled or aborted.

You may check the ESC (escape) key; it might be stocked and always pressed or abnormally shorting at a random time. Clean the keyboard, use a blower if necessary or disassemble your keyboard ad clean the keyboard circuit. Remove all dirt and even small pieces of papers and paperclip that is accidentally put in between your keyboard keys.

Check also the SPACE key and the ENTER key. These keys are also used to press a button. If these are stocked or abnormally shorted, this will trigger an execution of the focused command button or a default button.

Sometimes keyboard chord or cable malfunctioned. Wires inside the cable are worn-out and it makes short circuiting with other cables which is sometimes cause of automatic or uncontrolled key pressed. It will cause sending of keyboard pressed signal without pressing the keyboard keys.

Also check your mouse. There are instances that we are just pointing on the button, the mouse clicked automatically. This was caused by mouse button malfunction. Disassemble your mouse then clean all dirt inside the circuit board. Clean all switches or button switches. Please check also the cables. Busted cables or a worn-out cable brings the mouse rattling in your desktop and randomly clicking and dragging.

 If this message is a virus causing program, I am sure it is not. Virus won’t terminate programs in this manner, It will just hang-up your installation or it will give an error message that telling your program was terminated and it says the block and address where the program was terminated. You will be receiving also some sudden changes in your computer when you are infected with a virus. You computer slow down his speed and you will see abnormal increase of your memory and CPU usage in the task bar.

By the way, you may check your computer for viruses and scan it with anti-virus program just to prove that the message is not caused by the virus.
