I am running Windows Live Mail 2012 on a Windows 7 PC with a serious problem.  Every time I open the program the Windows Installer goes through a new install which takes about 2 minutes to complete.  Then the programs opens and functions normally.  Has anyone seen this happen before ?

I am also unable to update Security Essentials and Windows Update on this PC as well.  I don't believe the two are related.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  thanks
