Make sure you are installing as Administrator, not a regular restricted user.

The installer creates a log file in C:\Windows which is not allowed by a regular user.

Shouldn't be related. The installer is not java based.

This Windows 98 or Windows 98 Second Edition?

Bobulus,

Please ask your friend where he got this from. It's not ringing a bell and there's no iesetup.exe on any War in the Pacific CD we've sold and CDs have only been available through conventions or shipped from our Digital River store, with very few exceptions. If there's a problem, we'll help to sort it out but it would be helpful if you would post a list of all the files and folders in the root directory of the CD you are using to install.

Regards,

- Erik
