I tried reinstalling Adobe Photoshop; success.

Then Windows Live Writer, it failed, saying 'need Installer 3.1', so I uninstalled 
Installer again from Add/Remove programs, reboot, Automatic Updates immediately gave 
the prompt for the Installer, I installed and Live Writer managed to install smoothly 
this time. (I did not rename msi.dll to .bak this time, leaving it there as it is)

I think the kinks are finally ironed out for (hopefully) the last time, I suspect 
the main culprit in all this is the SPSS Evaluation trialware/nagware.
