The Popup blocker or something like that may be working hard to stop you
from installing the file.

Have you gone to this site?

"For the Macromedia Flash Player installation to succeed, please close
all other browser windows. Installation of Macromedia Flash Player may
require administrative access to your PC, which is normally provided

You need to be logged as administrator.

Good luck
