Installing Iolo Anti-Virus

I have Iolo System Mechanics (latest version) on two of my computers. On both I can't install the Iolo Anti-Virus component.
On the first computer I get a message that "a component DVPAPI is missing" and is needed for the Anti-Virus to run.
On the second computer I get a message that McAfee Anti-Virus is running. In fact, the McAfee product was uninstalled a long time ago and there is no trace of it in the "Add-Remove Program" window of the Control Panel.
On both computers I have Windows XP (updated automatically).
Any help would be greatly apprciated.

Re: Installing Iolo Anti-Virus

I had this exact issue. (It appears) I had to start the dvpapi service then I was able to run iolo antivirus.
