I have just experienced this problem also.

The installer says "Search in:" followed the name of a directory within the Inkscape install.

It switches from directory to directory, taking about a minute or two on each one.

Process Explorer says it is eating 50% of available CPU (this is in a Core Duo lapttop).

It seems to be doing something unbelievably labourious and unnecessary with each directly.

The clue must be in the string "Search in:" which must appear in the source somewhere. Whatever is putting up "Search in:" has got to be the culprit.
