press control+alt+delete and check if it's running. if not, try checking for winamp agent or some software which could be using it. are you sure you have the required privileges?

a (very radical i must say) solution is to save the setup file somewhere and install it in safe mode

It's sorted Z-A mate :P

When you run the installer, does it ask you to close WinAmp?
