This response might sound like a cop-out, but after rebooting (that's always
worth a try), try the download again in a few hours, when perhaps the
internet is less travelled. Last Saturday evening, I had a problem where I
couldn't see a friend who was online and they couldn't see me ... and I was
definitely online. Another friend (online, but in a different time zone)
explained that they often see this behaviour during heavy messenger traffic.
It might not be the answer you are looking for, but it won't hurt anything
to give it a try. Good luck. Diana

When I attempt to download MSN Messenger 6.2, after going through all the
download steps, I get the error message: "Could not access network location
<Comon Administrative Tools>.AllUsers\." and then I press cancel/ok and I
get
the error message from MSN saying that the installation was interrupted.
Then I press ok and I get the error message "MSN Messenger has failed with
the error code: '1603'. Please go to the MSN Messenger Website and download
the software from there.

I am also unable to download things such as ADOBE Acrobat Reader, etc but
then I am able to download other things.
So I contacted MSN and they gave me instructions which didn't work. So I
was wondering if any of you know what to do, or do I have to take my
computer
in to get fixed?
