Windows Live Essentials 2011: Installation error

I was ask to upgrade the installed and running version of Windows Live Essentials 2011.

Even if I'm an administrator, I always get an error message : "0x80070005", Source "WaitForCatalog"

I deinstalled Live Essentials in order to start a clean install but after runnin the install program, I still got the same error message.

Any hint is welcome!
