Trend is the name of a compnay that makes security software. Do you have anything set up to stop kids from installing software? When I googled trend stopping from installing the first hit was something about software stopping kids from installing software. This could be it if your doing an upgrade.

I saw a similar post elsewhere in these forums where Windows 7 install was stalling.

Is there a "Next" button at the bottom of the screen? if so, click that.
