Hi

i download the player successfully, then run it

it starts to install for a fraction of a second then comes up with a message

"Adobe Flash Player Installer"

"installation encountered errors"

"Failed to initialize"

and i cant move forward or see what the errors are

And me, too. Had problem before and again today when I tried to upgrade. Did uninstall previous versions. Using newest version Firefox with XP. Previously, did go back to earlier version so I'd some version of Flash.

Think I found answer in another thread.

It gives alternate location to download for 32 or 64 IE or Firefox. I got message saying Flash installed.
