Flash Player 9

I am trying to get the new version of the Flash player installed and I am having all kinds of issues.

First Problem:
When installing from the following page the flash player hangs and I get two quotes in the area where the confirmation movies are suppose to play. Therefore the player does not run.

Second Problem:
When installing the .exe from the following page. It goes through the install process and then I get an error.

Error 1904.module - Hence letting me know that for some apparent reason i can not register the Flash9.ocx

Then the player still does not work.

Third Problem:
Now that i have gone through all the above when I go view ans excisting site that was working perfectly with flash player 8 it is broken.

Yet again the player is not working.

I guess by know you guys can feel my fustration.

It is not a permission issue as for I am an admin. Is there any one that can solve this for us users?

During the Macromedia Days this would have been fixed ASAP. Adobe WHATS UP?
Thanks!
