Error 2738

Hi. I've got Windows Vista and I'm trying to install Apple browser Safari for
Windows. It doesn't let me open the install file. It says error 2738 almost
at the end of the process . Can anyone tell me what this means? Thanks and
greetings from Spain

Re: Error 2738

If you've tried to download and install Safari on Windows, but got "Error
2738", here's the solution:

Go and install latest VBScript engine from Microsoft or if the VBScript is
already installed do steps described below:

1.. On the Start menu, click Run.
2.. In the "Open" field, enter the following command and click OK.
regsvr32 vbscript.dll
3.. A message should appear stating that the "DllRegisterServer in
C:\WINDOWS\system32\vbscript.dll succeeded."
4.. Click OK and try installing Safari again.

Re: Error 2738

Thanks a lot for your help. I could do that and install Safari. Unfortunately
the new browser is still full of mistakes. It shuts down every time I try to
touch any other bottom and when I try to open pages from newspapers like La
Vanguardia, El Pais or El Mundo, I cannot see bold letters and some links,
probably because of some problem with the fonts. Anyway, thanks a lot for
your help

Re: Error 2738

Thanks Bill...
I'm not trying Safari, but that helped me install QuickTime, which had the
same problem.
Only I had to run the cmd prompt as Administrator.
