Summary: Repair or Change installation error

Initial Comment:
When I re-run the Python 2.5 final installer and 
choose either Repair or Change options, it makes it to 
the "Publish product information" step then says:

"A network error occurred while attempting to read 
from the file:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\python-2.5
[1].msi"

The thing is, I saved the file as python-2.5.msi and 
the file it mentions does not exist. If I copy python-
2.5.msi to python-2.5[1].msi, then run python-2.5.msi, 
the installation works!

Attached is the python.log you asked for. Probably what 
happened is the first time I installed it, IE called the 
binary python-2.5[1].msi. Subsequently when I downloaded a 
new one (because the old one was cleared from my IE cache 
long ago) it looked for an installer with the old name 
as "Package name retrieved from configuration data" would 
indicate.

Can you please run the installer with "msiexec /i <filename>
/l*v python.log", and attach a compressed version of
python.log to this report?
