Sounds like the problem I was having. Try this.
The main problem is that you need to reset security settings back to the defaults.
1. Do an uninstall of adobe flash player.
2. reset your security setting as described by support.microsoft, go to the link below run the program that does it for you.
from start, click, run.. and this command:
secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb /verbose,
for more details on this step.

3. Do one more install and it should work. adobe forum thread with the solution is below. Worked for me. Let me know if you continue to have problems.
For more info on this, read the adobe forum link (Flash Player Installation issue - Error 1904) attached. Get a geek friend to help you through this. Make sure you can always restore to an earlier point in time, assuming you have WinXP. Good luck.

If you are using Internet Explorer, it probably has popup blocker enable by default. From the toolbar select Tools, Pop-Up Blocker and choose Turn off. Don't forget to turn it back on when you're done.
