Installation Error Code 0xC007001C

I have recently purchased the AVG internet security and antivirus software. On installation, it looks like it is going through ok and asks me to restart my laptop. Once this is done it then goes through the process of finalising the installation but generates the error code at the very end with a description of 'Appender name is 0or empty'. Can anyone help getting through this? Using windows 7 home premium 64bit. Thanks
