VS2003 fails to install: Frontpage 2000 extensions

I'm having a weird error on the Frontpage 2000 extensions when installing MSVC 2003. It installs all the prereqs, but it fails on the FP2000 Extensions with this in the error log:

[05/29/06,00:18:15] Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Web Extensions Client: c:\docume~1\patrick\locals~1\temp\wcu\RunMSI.exe exited with return value 1603
[05/29/06,00:18:15] Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Web Extensions Client: ***ERRORLOG EVENT*** : Error code 1603 for this component means "Fatal error during installation.
"
[05/29/06,00:18:15] Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Web Extensions Client: ***ERRORLOG EVENT*** : Setup Failed on component Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Web Extensions Client

I have no idea what's the problem. This is a clean installed machine(1.5 weeks old). It has all the latest service packs, and Office 2003 isntalled. Any ideas on how to overcome this error? Toolmaker

Check the VS2003 read me ($DRIVE$:\readme.htm) - there's a manual installation procedure to bypass this particular error (FAQ 5.25).

HTH,
I'm doing that now, but I get:
Error 1933. The Windows Installer service cannot update one or more protected Windows files.


Now that's odd.... I'm logged in as local admin, if that matters.

I had this exact problem on a lot of PC.
