IF your Vista DVD has the "Upgrade" feature available, you can try a repair as described in this article, as always back up your important data first. Repairs do not usually fix permissions issues, so I suggest going to this forum to be sure you have not been infected by something nasty.

Normally if you select Run, the application if it is an installer package will actually as you indicate download to a temporary location and then install.

If you suddenly can't save to any of these locations, right click on the folder, select properties and then click on the Security tab.
