Download won't start

[esil739]

I have a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.5.8, Safari version 5.0.6

I was having issues, and per the Adobe website, uninstalled my Flash Player. However, now when I try to download, nothing happens. I get to the screen that says "Thank you. Your download will start immediately" but then nothing happens. I checked to make sure plug-ins were enabled. I even took my laptop to the IT desk on campus, but no one there could figure it out. I really need to have my Flash Player working soon, in order to watch lectures for class.

Please, please help me! 

Thank you for your time.

Please try downloading from this URL:

Thanks so much for responding. I was able to download the installer from that URL, but every time I try to open it, it "quits unexpectedly". I tried several times to relaunch, with the same result.

It sounds like it's corrupted.  Try downloading from here:

Sorry, same result.

Unfortunately it sounds like there's something going wrong with your system or network connection.  I just downloaded the file from the dropbox location on another 10.8 system and it opened fine.  I would recommend using disk utility and scanning your drive for problems.

So, I scanned my drive and disk utility said it was fine. I managed to open the 10.3 Installer from another website, and it seems to work, and goes all the way to 100%, but I can't figure out where it installed to, and Safari still says I don't have it. Any thoughts?
