installshield

When trying to install a program called "AV Grabber", I get the following error message.

unable to create installdriver instance

Product name is: EZ Grabber
Right click on the executable 7.1.79.0

I have tried installing Install Sheild 7, but have no luck trying to remove this error message. Any Ideas?

Machine: Windows XP (Home Edition)
User Account: Administrator Account

Folder version of installshield is visible from:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Driver\7\Intel 32

Have tried the following command, but have not helped.
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Driver\7\Intel 32\IDriver.exe" -Embedding
