Problem installing the DAO software

I have had, in my old Visual C++ MFC software, problems installing the DAO library. I normally install this software from a 3 disks installation package that I think that come as redistributable with visual studio 98. What happens, it is a message saying that "Some of the files are in use".

The problem it is very normal in Windows XP with the norton antivirus.

The solution it is to shut down all the programs (the procexp tool from sysinternals.com it is very helpful) that use the DLLs that also use the DAO package.
It seems that it is the own antivirus what gives the problem.
