I cleaned the registry and uninstalled Oracle. Now here is the error message I get when I try to install Developer 6 before it aborts.

ORAINST caused a general protection fault

Oracle Installer presents some nasty bugs and even if you uninstall all binaries, the problem persistes.

Usually removing the Orainst directory under the ORACLE_HOME directory should suffice (try first renaming it).
After you delete or rename the Orainst directory, perform a new setup and everything should work fine.
