When installing python-2.6.msi it crashes when doing the following steps on a windows XP (32 bit). I'm not sure if all those steps are needed, but that's how it crashed here: - start python-2.6.msi - check 'install just for me' - change the destination directory (d:\bin\Python26) - click on 'advanced' - click on cancel - confirm cancel At this point windows presents a message: to help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program.

describes the same crash, except that the user chose "all users" and did not change the destination directory.
