I think I've found an answer to the problem Q.
From Extreme Tech:
**********************************
You can't consider a Windows operating system installation
complete until you've got Adobe Reader on your system. So
many assets on the Web come in Acrobat form, and unless you
have the full program on your software shelf you need Reader
to check them out.
If you're the kind of power-user who turns off User Account
Control, or if you log on right into the default administrator
account, you might notice that Adobe Reader 8 won't install
after download
That's sortof what I did. I just ran it and when it had finished extracting and gave me the error, I found the temp directory and installed ran the REAL installer.
