I have asked a member of the Flash Player team to look into this, but you may have to wait until after the weekend.

Hi Mort,
Could you post a copy of your Flash Player install log for us to take a look at?
Where do I find the Flash Player installation log on the Macintosh?
Thanks,
Chris

Thank you for the log. First thing I'd try is to fix permssions using Apple's Disk Utility.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1452
If that doesn't help, the next thing I'd try is to force the installer to run at the highest permission level. You can do that using these steps:
1. Download and mount the installer from: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_player_11_osx.d...
2. Start the Terminal application in your /Applications/Utilities folder
3. type: cd /Volumes/Flash\ Player/Install\ Adobe\ Flash\ Player.app/Contents/MacOS (please note that the slash direction is important)
4. type: sudo ./Adobe\ Flash\ Player\ Install\ Manager
You'll be prompted for your password and then the installer should start up. If you are unfamilar with Terminal or run into problems please send email to ccampbel@adobe.com and we can setup a quick desktop sharing session so I can take a look at what's going on.
