Wondering if you can simply create a file in that directory. Either open the "Run" dialog and type "cmd"

Another "Classic" name for this is a "DOS Window".
Follow me ?

I have gone into the Dundjini area before and created new files before.

Gotcha. Is there such a directory as C:\Program Files\
Dundjinni Enterprises ?
Can you create a new text file in it ? I cannot think
of why you could not. My registry also saves the install
directory in the format with the "~"'s in it.

Yeah, I think the second one is the one it is trying (and
failing) to "install to". You *could* try seeing if you
can "uninstall" the old one (if it is there) and starting
"fresh" (no dundjinni entries in the registry, ...)

the installer is now recording add-on installation data"

I finally just canceled it... and it has the same issue as before... the Art Pack textures can not be seen only the color base.

When it is just hanging like that, I really think
it is at the stage where it is trying to save your
installation keys to the registry, and you (whoever
you are when you log it; your account) don't have
permission to write to the registry.
I am convinced deep in the Java code the installer
is throwing some sort of SecurityException and not
catching it/handling it properly.
When you install can you right-click and install as
administrator ? Can you disable user access control
(UAC) on a Vista box ? I know you believe you have
administration "rights" on your computer but the
evidence leans the other way. (I also was hanging
at the end of the install until I figured out how
to disable UAC).
