Script error attempting to install Player 4.0

VMware-player-4.0.0-471780.exe

After clicking on Next on program install location page, I get a Script Error:

Line: 871

Char: 7

Error: expected ")"

Code 0

URL: file:///C:/Users/Cathy's%20HP%20Primary/AppData/Local/Temp/vmware_1320444023/index.htm?lang=1033&loc...

Whether I answer yes or no to continue I get an empty grey box and have tp kill program in Task Manager.

Help!

After taking a second look at your error message I noticed there's an apostrophe in the temporary installation path. Some users mentioned that this caused the error and they were able to resolve the issue by forcing the installer to use another temporary folder.

VMware-player-4.0.0-471780.exe /t "C:\Temp\InstPlayer"
