Thanks,Markus. I find this solution but i don't understood how i can
solve this problem:

Subject:
Why do I receive "Error finding installer class" when I try to
install MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP2) or 7.0.4 (R14SP2) on my Windows
machine?

Problem Description:
When starting the installer for MATLAB on my Windows machine it first
copies its Java Virtual Machine to my system. After that the
installer launches and I see the splash screen. Then I get the
following error message:
Error finding installer class.
An exception occurred while looking for class.

Solution:
This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For
previous releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

There is a bug in the installer on Windows in the way that it behaves
with TEMP environment variables that point to a directory containing
non-English or special characters.

To work around this issue, make sure that your TEMP variable points
to a directory name containing only standard ASCII characters.
Sometimes a TEMP variable points to a directory inside of your
profiles folders, so you may also want to check if your user name
contains non-English characters.
 

What is the proper thing to do?Thank you!!!
