I have tried to install Flash Player 11.7... on Windows XP Service Pack 3 into Firefox 20.0.1
Before downloading the file, I turned off my Windows Firewall & my McAfee Firewall (not sure if they resolve to the same thing?)
Before download, it was confirmed: install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih.exe Binary file(2.0 MB) from http://aihdownload.adobe.com
I saved the file. The file downloaded was 2092KB
I executed the file and was asked: "install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih.exe" is an executable file. Executable files may contain viruses or other malicious code that could harm your computer. Use caution when opening this file. Are you sure you want to launch "install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih.exe"?
"Do you want to run this file install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih.exe" I clicked 'Run'
A small window appeared, Adobe Flash Player Installer. It said "Initializing" then almost immediately "Failed to initialize 50%"
The downloaded file had gone after this.
I have tried this several times, including stopping Firefox but this made no difference.
My computer time is synchronised from the internet. I am in London on BST.
