I tried several stranger things, like installing over 2.4.0 but in a different directory. Everything worked like clockwork. I did NOT try anything that would have involved a system with various things missing (like lack of VBScript), but I did play around with alternate install locations, repairs, uninstalls, single-user and all-user installs, and I found no problems anywhere.
