When I first downloaded the CS3 beta it started to install but then inisted I close Firefox, which i did, but the install didn’t resume. So I restarted from the downloaded file but this time the installer starts, the progress bar goes approx 5% of the way across then the dialog disappears. The msiexec.exe remains running in processes but it does nothing even left for a couple of hours. How do I retrieve the situation since I suspect the installer has left some detritus which I can’t find and is stopping it installing correctly?

TIA

I have the exact problem, or it never get passed the "Agreement" screen. It seems like CS3 may require IE or similar to install, and I too have FireFox and CS3 installation asks to close FireFOX too.
