iTunes v7.2 Install Error

I've tried to resolve this issue for the last few hours and I need help. When
I try to upgrade to iTunes v7.2 (latest for Windows Vista) I get the
following popup error:


---

iTunes could not be installed because Visual Basic Script (VBScript) is not
installed or has been disabled. Make sure VBScript is installed, turn off
script blocking in anti-virus and personal firewall software, re-register
VBScript, and then install iTunes.

-----

Any help would very much appreciated.

Thank you!

Found this in the General dicussion area:
>
In my case I opened a command prompt and changed to the \windows\system32
directory. Then I entered 'regsvr32 vbscript.dll' (without the quotes).

The command prompt shoud be opened with "Run as adminstrator". In my
case, the command prompt opened in C:\Windows\System32 which is where the
file vbscript.dll resides. Hence the command

regsver32 vbscript.dll

could be executed immediately.

After that iTunes+Quicktime installed with no hassle and then
Expression Media
also ran properly.

Open an elevated Command Prompt to register the module vbscript.dll. To open an elevated Command Prompt, click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

Type the following in the Command Prompt window:

regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Press ENTER
