Take a look at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968749
Based on your log this seems to be the same issue. Thank you MSFT for making support life so much simpler.

Having downgraded to Service Pac 2, removed Norton 360, disabled the firewall, removed ACT 11.0, removed all traces of SQL and MSXML 6.0, cleaned out any traces of Microsoft SQL in Program files, cleaned out the recycle bin. I then ran Microsoft Installation Cleanup Utility and could see no traces of SQL or MSXML.

I still get the same error when installing SQL Express Edition standalone in support of ACT 11.0:

Accompanied with the following Log:
