Costing files never completes

Hi,
Recently I encountered a problem during installation when costing action
never completes. This action runs in background and should set the
property CostingComplete to 1 when the costing is finished. This is
standard MSI action. In the case that the file brought by the
installation package exists on the target system and has reduced
permissions (only for user SYSTEM in may case) this action sometimes hangs.
Log file shows right message that the installation has no permissions to
modify the target file but the only way to stop installation is to kill
the process.
The question is if exists any way to re-catch this error and to show
appropriate message to the user.

Thank you.
