This (from the log file) looks odd:

I'm retitling the thread and bringing this to the front in hopes of
attracting the attention of someone who might recognize it.

If that doesn't attract attention here, start over on the general list,
emphasizing the error message you're seeing.

More than likely it's trying to create new directories in the
c:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/8.2 directory and the permissions are
wrong. The error message looks like it's cutting off the error at the
first / or something in the path.

I'm no windows SA but I'd say deleting that directory and trying again
might work.
