newbie can't install on windows

Definitely an AV problem.  I'd recommend switching to Linux and playing 
there.  Possibly downloading the BackTrack 4 CD and booting off of 
that.  As long as AV is installed it will continue to attempt to neuter 
metasploit.  Once metasploit is installed, if Symantec scans, it will 
remove portions of metasploit and even if not, it will block attempts at 
exploitation.
