It sounds like it is asking for the root password. Are you the administrator on the computer? If you are, try using passwords like Root or Password because it sounds like it isn't using your password. Sadly since you are messing with system files when installing software, there is no way to disable the password.

Hint: Instead of typing Sudo in front of every command, try typing in Sudo -s and when your done being root, just type exit
