I get the following error at stage 10 of installing postgres.

'Error binding the test network socket: 10013'

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

I'm running windows 7.

many thanks :)

Please disable UAC before the installation and make sure you have administrator rights.
And you possibly have to switch off your firewall.

I haven't installed postgresql under windows 7 but i remember some threads here were users made it.

I had the same error. I use vista and my UAC was indeed turned off. Does this mean that I have to try it again with my firewall off? Tnx

Possibly yes and it may be necessary to remove a 3rd party firewall like F-Secure completely.
