Come to think of it, the firewall would let me decide if it were necessary
to allow this program, and I did try to install with the antivirus disabled,
unsuccessfully, I might add.
All five or six instances given by MS for installation problems don't
pertain to my case, so I will have to wait for Windows Update, I gather.

Why wouldn't IE 9 install on my Vista Home Premium, SP2, 32 bit?
I downloaded the exe. file from Microsoft's home site.
My current browser is IE 8, besides others.
Should I wait for Windows Update to deliver it?
Thanks,
Harry.
Did it ask you to restart and leave a link for you to check on your
desktop as far as possible issues?
Yes it did, but I wasn't able to identify the hindering issue.
One issue may be your firewall.
I will try disabling the firewall temporarily and see if that helps.
The download proceeds to about 1/8th of the way and then stops.
There are others, but typically this is the primary issue that kills
the installation and/or download of files.
Thanks for the assistance.
Harry.
