I am not 100% sure about this, but I think that line should look like
this to be more correct:
fv = "MMredirectURL=" +
encodeURIComponent(win.location) + "&MMplayerType=" +
encodeURIComponent(pt) + "&MMdoctitle=" +
encodeURIComponent(doc.title);
I tried that with the same problem anyway. The bug really seems to be
in the end of the download process. The install just doesn't kick off.
I can get it to repro in FF and IE8 using Flash 10,0,12,36.

It's "ActiveX" in IE8 and "Plugin" in Firefox. So I don't think this
is the issue.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
